+ | You should be aware that the quality of the road data varies by area. The data in Central and Western Europe is usually very good and routes should only contain minor issues. In Eastern Europe, North America, Australia, Russia, and Japan, the data should be alright, but there might be some issues. A typical example might be that the route follows a dirt road, even though you specified "avoid unpaved roads", | ||
These cases could be, that Kurviger uses a road that is not accessible. Or maybe Kurviger won't use a Route, even though you know that the road is accessible. No matter how many waypoints you place along the road, Kurviger simply won't take the road. Maybe the turn instructions are incorrect, like a missing street name or maybe no turn instruction was given at all. | These cases could be, that Kurviger uses a road that is not accessible.

Kurviger will route through fords, but if they are marked as impassable or deep, we will not allow routing over them. If you are routed through a deep ford, consider updating the OSM data or let us know. |

+ | If the exit number or roundabout orientation is not correct this is usually because the direction of roundabouts is incorrect (usually happens in countries with left-hand traffic). Kurviger and OSM can handle roundabouts in both directions, the direction only needs to be correctly specified. | ||
