truck attributes - swedish road classes BK1, BK2, BK3

[t.mateit]

Hi Bernd,

this is OK for now.

2 more question came up from the customer:
1. Is it possible to show the different "preferred route types" (for SWE BK1 - 3) in different colors on the map?
2. In case the feature is not activated - as we use it today - the routing basically ignores these categories completely, correct? Weight restrictions are basically ignored for SWE.

Sorry for the late answer.

It is indeed possible to represent with different colors the different BK types. See for instance the attached request.

* BK1 in green
* BK2 in blue
* BK3 in black
* BK4 in cyan

Code: Select all

Here's some more valuable info and a fancy video:
The swedish network classes are described as follows in the documentation of the prefered routes feature layer:

Screenshot from the docu

Unfortunately the rendering profiles do not expect these labels such as BK_1 but specific integers and of course the next question is: where to find the matching between such a label and the integer?
Technically spoken the definition of these values is given in the so-called property connector files within the map. Here's an example from my local installation:

Excerpt from my local propertyConnectorV014.xml (in the map folder)

I can't guarantee that the integer values are stable - they might change from map version to map version!

Here's a short update... the attached screenshots show the coverage of PTV_TruckAttributes and PTV_PreferredRoutes in the 2022.2 maps of TOMTOM and HERE in the region of Gothenburg/Sweden.

Here are the numbers for the visualized areas (not for the map as a whole!)

Provider	PreferredRoutes	TruckAttributes
2022.2T	0	16'826
2022.2H	17'172	10'005

So TOMTOM provides the "preferred" data in the "truck attributes":
While you are able to specify the PTV_PreferredRoutes (plus the road classes such as Swedish BK_1, ...) with a proper malus in the HERE map you need to choose a different path in the TOMTOM world: make sure that you request PTV_TruckAttributes together with proper vehicle settings.
