Import BRouter GeoJSON routes

[Leeb64]

I like to use the BRouter Web Client for route planning because I can set the BRouter there just like on my smartphone.
Exporting with GPX is no problem either.
The web client also has a format for exporting: "GeoJSON".
This format is probably something different from the JSON format at CRUISER?

BRouter GeoJSON is an alternative export route format of BRouter website.
If you check it, you will see that it contains more data than the GPX format.

This format is probably something different from the JSON format at CRUISER?

They are different formats.

Cruiser JSON format is an offline, compact format that has no limits and can hold any possible data.

If BRouter GeoJSON format can contain offline all routing data,
we could use it in Cruiser for offline import of BRouter website routes?

This is what I found:
GeoJSON is an open standard spatial data exchange format for representing simple geographic features and their nonspatial attributes. GeoJSON is based on JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) and is a format for encoding various structures of geographical data.

@Leeb64 👍

You can also try the GPX navigation format that can be exported by BRouter website.
It is an offline format that can be imported directly in Cruiser. See instructions here:

Note: GPX navigation format by BRouter website, does not contains speed limits.

Cruiser now imports BRouter website GeoJSON routes.

• Enable turn instructions in profile options

• Export in GeoJSON format (check Waypoints)

• Import the GeoJSON in Cruiser (offline)

BRouter website does not separate the intermediate points to via or shaping.

How should we import the intermediate points of BRouter website in Cruiser?
As via or shaping points?

Thats better!:

You can upload your own profiles.

I think VIA Points would be better....

@Leeb64 we can use our custom profiles in all BRouter websites in the same way:

There is also the BRouter website: https://bikerouter.de

You can upload your own profiles.

@Leeb64 indeed https://brouter.de/essbee/ also has a profiles menu to upload custom profiles.

Prefer the GeoJSON format in BRouter website exports.
It contains much more data than GPX, such as speed limits, road surface, etc.

So it will also be more useful in new features in the future.
