Error report: "Standard map" correct at a specific point, but not "Bike map" and others

[Karl Eke]

Hi, 
I am a happy user and noticed an error for a specific point in Sweden. 

At the standard map the road is there

At the "Bike map" (translated to English) the road is not there

At the "transport map" the road is not there

At the "ÖPNV Karte" map the road is not there
For the public GPS-tracks the road is there

Road missing on some maps is in the centre of the link

Standard map (road exist)

Bike map (layer-C) (road missing)

If more questions email me

In looking OSM, this road is type: unknown. From the wiki, is this about unknown road types:

Mappers should not expect that ways tagged like this will be useful to the end-user in any form. The ambiguity makes this rarely useful for data consumers. This has the following implications:

• Do not expect highway=road to be rendered
• Do not expect highway=road to be routable

I don't know if this is the root cause of the non rendering you are seeing, but a first fix would be to update OSM to indicate the type of road it is. I suspect that will cause it to render correctly.

Since it connects (among other things) a Tertiary road to a Residential road, and there is no other way to get to the residential road, it would probably be OK to change it to residential, or minor/unclassified road.

Thanks, I will try and see gradually what is needed.

Still cannot make it to work. 
Changed the road to ""minor/unclassified" did not help. 

Then changed to residential did not help either. 

Any suggestions? Or trouble shooting ideas?

Best regards

Time... You are looking on layers which don't update very fast, you have simply wait for new rendering.

Majka: I have run into this problem also in the past. Am sure your explanation is the root cause of not seeing changes yet.

Before seeing you answer I went into OSM and verified road is now residential. Then went into OSMAND and downloaded Sweden map. I could see the specific road segment was grayish, while others nearby where white. I then downloaded current OSMAND Live map and it renders white (correct for Resdiential road). I had also tried routing through the road with OSMAND, and that worked.

So, I concur with Majka. I believe everything is correct in the base map and you will just have to wait for rendering of the tiles to propagate. 

You did not mention if you were using OSMAND+ or OSMAND Live. I recommend both. That will give you the absolute latest map that is available. I use both so I can see OSM changes I make as soon as possible. Having said that there are tiles that can take a while to update. I believe I have seen delays as long as a few days maybe even a week. Others might know the worst case.
