Route profiles

Route profiles define the characteristics and special aspects of the
different modes of transport which are to be taken into account when
calculating routes. For example a route profile for bicycles will exclude
motorways from the route calculation but will include roads which other
vehicles are not allowed to use. And different arrival times will be
calculated for a bicycle than for a motorcycle for example.
