How HumDay uses it

You describe the outcome. Not this operation by name — what you want to happen. HumDay works out which operations it needs.
The contract names it. Before anything is built, you see exactly which BC Route Planner operations the program may use, and this is one of them.
You approve access. Read-only access is still yours to grant, and still limited to what the contract needs.
