What this does not say
Quoted verbatim from the section’s warnings field, exactly as the API returns it. They are not translated: a translation would show something other than what your response actually contains.
- NVDB objects imported by object type; distance is straight-line metres from the address point to the object's geometry (a line or area is met where it passes closest). Coverage is the object types and areas the pipeline has fetched.
- object_type_id 953 (Sykkelfelt) is a marked cycle lane on the carriageway; 705 and 907 are signed routes, which may run on ordinary road. NVDB registers state and county roads fully and municipal roads unevenly.
Fields
2 of 8 fields are value fields — the ones that decide whether a record actually says anything. The rest are context: identifiers, codes and timestamps. Fields marked “open” return values to anonymous callers; the rest require a key.
