When I'm planning a gravel bike ride, I want to know where all the gravel / dirt / unpaved roads are - not just the ones along my planned route. In the route planning map, it shows me which sections of my current route are paved vs dirt -vs unknown - so it's clear that Strava has this data about many roads - but in order to know whether other roads are dirt, I have to drag a waypoint over to them, which is slow and awkward. In the routing preferences, I can choose between "prefer dirt surfaces", "prefer paved surfaces", and "any surface", which is useful, but isn't the same as being able to see where everything is. Often, I am willing to go out of the way to ride a new gravel/dirt road, but I might not ever discover it by relying on the "prefer dirt surfaces" routing option. I'd like to see the surface type of all roads on the map - perhaps as a layer that I can turn on or off like the heatmap layers.
