Where our stop data comes from.
Where our stop data comes from, what a detour minute means, and how corridor pages put stops in order.
Stop data comes from five kinds of source.
OpenStreetMap, TomTom, Google, Open Charge Map and public fuel-price feeds. Each covers a different part of a stop. No brand pays to appear or to rank higher.
OpenStreetMap, TomTom and Google
OpenStreetMap supplies stop data through Overpass. TomTom supplies routing, address search and points of interest. Google supplies Places and Routes.
Chargers and fuel prices
Charger locations and status come from Open Charge Map, and the status is cached for 30 seconds. Fuel prices come from public feeds: Tankerkönig in Germany and the French government feed.
A detour minute is an estimate
The detour minutes in the app are an estimate of the time a stop adds to your drive when you leave your route for it. Green is 2 minutes or less, amber up to 7, red beyond that.
Corridor pages list stops in route order
A corridor page lists the stops along a road in the order you reach them, not by popularity or by who pays. No brand can pay to rank higher.
