[mkgmap-dev] address search and case significance of street name

Sat Apr 18 06:32:21 BST 2015

Hi all,

in some areas, esp. in CZ, I see quite a lot of houses where the addr:street 
name is slightly different to that of the nearest road. 
Sample:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/296555634
has name="K Zahrádkám"  (with capital "Z")
while some houses, e.g.
http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/53658380
have addr:street="K zahrádkám" 

I thought that this is handled by a bot, but this difference
exists now for quite a while.

I assume that mkgmap should always ignore case 
when it compares these tags? Or should that depend on the option
"--lower-case" ?

Gerd
