A point spatial object that is used to break up the road network for connectivity. The road network splits for the following circumstances:
The location where an attribute recorded on the road link changes for example its name or form.
The intersection or crossing of Roads (including bridges, flyovers and tunnels where there is no connectivity).
The start / end of a Road.
Where a One-Way Routing feature starts or ends.
Where a tunnel starts or ends.
Where there is a connection to the Path Network.
The context diagram below shows how the RoadNode has been inherited from INSPIRE and the attribution held on the RoadNode.
A point representing either the start/end of a road, the connectivity between two or more roads or where one of the recorded attributes changes along a road.
