Railroad Crossing
As a rule, we don't add railroad crossings (RRC) on guarded crossings. Exceptions are possible on dangerous ones. Always add a Map comment if you add a RRC on a guarded railroad crossing. We do add unguarded railway crossings. Not guarded is everything without track barrier arms.
In the app a railroad crossing may issue a warning alert.
Een overweg over een spoorweg die haaks op de weg geplaatst wordt geeft geen waarschuwing. De app geeft wel een waarschuwing op een wegsegment wanneer de hoek tussen RRC en het segment minder dan 45 graden is en de RRC niet verder dan 30 meter verwijderd is. Pas op: dit kan ook een naastgelegen weg raken!
Railroad crossing (RRC) alert: After a railroad crossing is mapped in WME, users will receive an alert in the app when they drive in the direction the RRC is mapped, just like the shutter direction of cameras. So, in the driving direction you see respectively road-gate-red dot. This picture shows a RRC which gives an alert when driving in the direction of the red arrow.
Define two RRC's on both side of the railroad to get alerts from both driving directions.
If the RRC is mapped with a 90 degrees angle no alert is given, only the railroad crossing is displayed in the app.
Railroad crossings can be added via Road > Railroad crossing and is displayed on a seperate layer: Level crossings.
