Please add a search function to the website. Currently the only way to go to a specific place is to pan and zoom.

This would be very helpful. The question is, which API should be used for this feature. probably something like Overpass?

scaidermern commented 1 year ago

Overpass isn't suitable for searching addresses. Instead, a geocoder such as Nominatim or Photon should be used.

Do you know how these APIs work? Maybe you can help the maintainers with a PR..

scaidermern commented 1 year ago

They are pretty simple to use. Lack of knowledge is not the problem here.
