Arrival time inaccurate
Quote from chupa88 on 28.12.2021, 17:29Hey guys,
I almost always use Google Maps to create a route and then import this route into Scenic. Once Scenic imports the route, the estimated time of the route is wildly off from the Google Maps estimate. A 90min route in Google Maps would often times be 45 minutes longer in Scenic. So much so that I now completely disregard the Scenic time of arrival. This is not due to real time traffic since I mostly ride back roads and country roads and there are hardly any traffic out there. Any ideas why this is happening?
Thanks!

In urban regions the estimation is perfect, while in some countries/regions the smaller roads cause overestimation. I have escalated this to the map provider. They are working on it.

A 60 mile route on back roads prepared in Scenic will give an estimated time of 2 hours and 18 minutes but will in fact take less than 1 hour and 30 minutes without speeding. Google Maps by contrast will get the correct time within 5 minutes.
