Hi
Andy,
it seems that now the empty space in the middle is
not escaped properly.
Thanks for the report, just fixed this.
BTW, where does this name database come from? I have
found some
OpenStreetMap is using the worldKit geocoder - http://brainoff.com/geocoder/
The names db comes from the GEOnet Names Database
very interesting old names with exact lat/long data.
Can the database be extended by the OSM users ?
Not yet, but it is planned - http://www.openstreetmap.org/trac/ticket/5
Unfortunately, there is no support for non-ascii
utf-8 searches.
The GNS database only contains ascii. Plan is to remove diacritics from characters, prior to lookup.
-Mikel
