Issues arising due to irregular (& many times non-existent) road naming
In OpenStreetMaps, as in real life, many roads, especially smaller, residential roads tend to not have names. In the OSM database, due to lack of:
a. Official names
b. Data sparsity
radroads.py is having some issues working.
I tried to work through the code, as the function was not working. I am guessing there may be some changes to the original OSMNx package, because of which these errors might be happening.
Due to a lack of street names, there are errors in determining the street lengths, and they are instead measuring street segment lengths, as illustrated here in Chandigarh:
