Precisely avoiding roads that are impassable for each vehicle.
- This allows for route searching that takes into account traffic restrictions based on vehicle size (width and height), weight, and type.
MapFan DB Road Map Database
Vehicle type regulation
This is nationwide vehicle type regulation that allows you to determine whether large cargo vehicles such as trucks are permitted to pass through certain areas.
This database covers roads nationwide and includes information on physical restrictions such as vehicle width, height, weight, and load capacity, as well as regulations based on traffic signs, such as prohibitions against large vehicles and vehicles carrying hazardous materials. It also includes attributes for motorcycles, taking into account whether or not they are suitable for two riders.
This data is highly effective in optimizing logistics vehicle routes, improving the accuracy of vehicle-specific navigation functions, and conducting simulation analyses.
Data Details
Comprehensive coverage ranging from physical limitations to vehicle-specific regulations.
- In addition to traffic restrictions based on vehicle dimensions, the system also accommodates regulations specific to each vehicle type, such as large cargo vehicles and vehicles carrying hazardous materials.
With 12 updates per year, we always provide reliable information.
- The information is updated 12 times a year to reflect changes in road conditions across the country.
We will always guide you along routes based on the latest regulations.
*This data is provided as an option for the road network.

Expected usage
In optimizing logistics routes, it can be used to select efficient routes that take into account restrictions on large vehicles.
In delivery services, this can be used to pre-check whether a vehicle can pass through a location, taking into account load and height restrictions.
In traffic regulation simulations, it can be used to create realistic models that reflect the latest Vehicle type regulation.
In providing route guidance that includes vehicle width and weight restrictions in a navigation system for large vehicles.
It is available.This can be used to track the routes of vehicles transporting hazardous materials, including identifying restricted areas and issuing detour instructions.
FAQ
What types of vehicles are covered by Vehicle type regulation?
This data covers a wide range of vehicle types, including large cargo trucks, large passenger cars, hazardous materials transport vehicles, motorcycles, and mopeds.
How often is the data updated, and what is the content of those updates?
We conduct regular monthly updates 12 times a year, ensuring prompt response to the latest traffic regulations and additions/changes to signs.
How can this data be used for navigation systems for large vehicles or for optimizing logistics routes?
By utilizing Vehicle type regulation, it becomes possible to design routes that only use roads accessible to large vehicles.
By considering restrictions such as vehicle width, weight, and height limits, as well as no-entry zones, this system helps prevent misdirection and reduces driving risks. In logistics operations, it enables efficient delivery planning and route simulations that avoid these restrictions.
