The map that I'm working on has a pedestrian area. I'm trying to route from a point near there to another spot on the map but because the pedestrian area isn't connected to the rest of the streets, the routing algorithm gives up. Should the map be modified to connect the pedestrian area to the road near it? Or is there some appropriate fix in the routing algorithm?algorithm? **Edit**: Here's an example: http://www.yournavigation.org/?flat=32.122709107475&flon=34.817094386304&tlat=32.1092743&tlon=34.8398295&v=foot&fast=1&layer=mapnik Move the red marker around and you can see that when it looks for the closest node, sometimes it find a small, four-sided pedestrian area that has no path to the rest of the map. yournavigation.org is using pyroute as far as I can tell.
