I was able to follow the OSRM instructions to extract, prepare and route OSM data for both North-America (Geofabric.de extract) as well as the full planet download from osm.org. For both I used the supplied car.lua profile.

Now I am trying to modify the profile (and re-preocess the data) in order to assign a higher than normal cost to bridges, tunnels and ferries. I am having a hard time finding any instructions related to profile customization.

Any help is highly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

You're right. Documentation on Profiles seemed to be missing ...so I've just created it! :

https://github.com/Project-OSRM/osrm-backend/wiki/Profiles

I've only been playing with OSRM for a couple of days, so I'm not the most qualified person to be writing the documentation, but hopefully others will jump on this and expand the details.

I'm afraid it doesn't detail how to "assign higher than normal cost to bridges" (not yet) but it might give you some ideas.

Thank you very much for your answer and for posting the profile instructions on the wiki!! At the moment I am still using the data prepared using the car.lua profile and I haven't looked into this for a while. This will definitely be helpful when I go back to reprocess with a customized profile. Thanks again!
