    With the increasing use of EVs, a planning option with the sophistication of MRA and integrated knowledge of the charging points is needed. Adding an 'Open charge map' layer would meet this need.

      That is a good request. 👍
      I drive a KIA e- Niro electric car and in combination with Apple car play it would be a great feature.

      Kindly regards

        Maybe when MRA update the POI library, electric charge points could be added. This would certainly be less expensive than paying for another map.

          Yesterday when I tried the new Apple car play function I noticed some charging station for EV in the map. 👍

            1: the charge point data in 'open charge map' is live, being updated to show which chargers are working and in some cases, if they are in use.
            2: copying the charge point data is not a free option, a lot of work is involved and in some cases, the data is licenced by OCM for free; as a commercial product MRA would probably need to pay.
            3: OCM as the name suggests is open and free to use - https://www.programmableweb.com/api/open-charge-map

            • Seasonal closures affect not only seasonal road closures (mountain passes and the like) but also closures due to roadworks. This is why the route takes you through the closure even during planning, even though Here is actually aware of it.
