Hi @all, is it possible to find a adress enter a part of a town? For example: i search kölner street in Remscheid Lennep. Lennep is a part of Remscheid. When i enter Lennep in the adress box there is no result. When i enter Remscheid the adress will be found. http://spike-01.osm.ichosted.org.uk/node/58639041 Thank you Arndt

As you can see from the data and wikipedia: the city name is Remscheid and nothing else. Thus every address has Remscheid has city name. In theory you could modify the rules for mkgmap:city in your own style, so that Lennep is used as city and not Remscheid (which means, you could only search for Lennep and will not find it anymore in Remscheid). But in this case it's not possible, since there are no admin boundaries for Lennep (I think in this case it would be admin_level 9-11).

Thanks for the Info. I tried to find Kölner Straße in a Garmin Map (City Navigator) Both values are possible, Remscheid or Lennep. The result searching for Lennep is: Kölner Straße, Lennep (Remscheid), DEU The result for Remscheid is Kölner Straße, Remscheid, Remscheid, DEU Perhaps the same is possible with mkgmap?

It maybe possible to add additional citys to the index with mkgmap, I don't know, but in this case the OSM data misses already the necessary informations (admin_level boundary). So the prerequisite is that at first somebody enters this data to OSM. Thorsten
