Requesting a Route from a Location near a Motorway

To request a route starting at a street by a location near a motorway, use the calculateroute service specifying the start location as a street position (waypoint0=street!!poi_location).

In the following example a requested route starts at a location of Berlin Tegel S-Bahn station (52.587854,13.2898107) close to the A111 motorway (Tunnel Tegel). You can avoid to matchg the route start to the motorway if you specify location of the station as a street position.

If you specify the location of the station as a waypoint position (waypoint0=geo!52.587854,13.2898107) instead of a street position, then the route start is matched to the A111 motorway.
