[mkgmap-dev] [locator] Country specific rules

Thu May 5 16:44:18 BST 2011

Hello,

this rules works very good.  2 strange things:
Sometimes Basecamp and the Oregon 450 has problems to find Streets starting with 2 letters, space, more letters (Am Anger, Am Lusbühl, Am Hägle (http://osm.org/go/0DKQ69he@-?way=22999129)), but  "Auf der Bleiche" (http://osm.org/go/0DKQ43mIw--?way=22999129) works. It's not a problem with the Umlaute (äöü). 
And the second thing: 
I've created a german-map (http://snailrun.de/gmapsupp.img.zip), splitted into tiles with a 1200000 nodes. In Horb for example I can find the "Am Lochbrunnenstraße" (2 letters, space, more letters works here ?!?) but not the Lichtenbergstraße, Kirchstraße, Schafblumenhalde (http://osm.org/go/0DhcL1dyJ-?way=22999129)
But when I cut out a bounding-box from the Germany.osm.pfb-file in the size of Horb, I can find the all streets....
Strange things...

Cheers
Martin
