Hi,
I’m working on route ferry info and I can’t generate Ferry distance. There is no problem with ferry time.
For example when I run:

This route is via ferry from FR to GB, and returned segments with ferry informations are:
<ns3:RouteListSegment countryCode="FR" iuCode="33" vNorm="0" nC="MOTORWAY" accDist="58612" accTime="2893" dirInfoIdx="-1" streetNameIdx="-1" streetNoIdx="-1" nodeC="3" firstNodeIdx="444" polyC="9" firstPolyIdx="515">

As you can see, accDist is the same, only accTime changed.
Could you be so kind and tell me what I have to do to gather ferry distance.

Hello Chris,

the reason why you don't get the ferry distance with this approach is simple: the distance won't appear on the tachograph.
So the more interesting question is about the expectation: what is the consequence behind a non-zero value?

Maybe we can derive an approach once we know what you need it for...

Best regards Bernd

It's only as an info for map users. Some of them asked about ferry distance.

in this case I recommend to compute the airline distance based on the ENTER FERRY and EXIT FERRY manoeuvres...
