Hey. Thanks for the background info.
From my perspective as an information architect, environmental engineer, canoe instructor and tour guide for canoe tours, it is enormously important for an ecologically sensitive region like the Spreewald that navigation rules ("here you are allowed to pass as a canoeist, here you are not") are well visualized on a digital map. Ideally, this should be updated on a daily basis. With each closure of a lock etc.
And of course it would be nice, if the apparently arguing groups ("OSM mappers" and "OSM routers") find a great way to satisfy all interests.
I'm trying myself through an acquaintance who works in the Spreewald in tourism, a contact to the State Navigation Office Brandenburg to get out there, what information is available digitally usable.
I am curious.
By the way, the other "Andreas" is an Axel : ) With him I am in intensive contact via mail.
Brouter is great, I am very enthusiastic about the beautiful tool. Hopefully it can soon be used for routing in the Spreewald and for routing in the Mecklenburg Lake District.
