There is a frustrating issue with the CoMaps work flow. If I copy an address from Google maps into the CoMaps search bar, the application cannot find it.
For example, if I copy the address listed for the Portland Art Museum into CoMaps search:
1219 SW Park Ave, Portland, OR 97205
The search result varies. Sometimes it is:
Southwest 18th Avenue, 1219
Sometimes it is for the entire road:
Southwest Park Avenue
Is there a syntax issue here? You would think this would be a very easy find.
I think CoMaps only finds addresses that are within the coverage area of the downloaded maps. Quite annoying, but in my experience it works quite well within that area.
When I search, it often finds stuff on other continents first.
I have this map downloaded. It’s my hometown.
Are the addresses correctly recorded on OpenStreetMap.org?
Yeah. When I search for the address on OpenStreetMap.org it seems to consistently find the museum.
So why is CoMaps different?
