[Geocoding] Figure out geocoding #17

Closed xivk closed 2 years ago

xivk commented 2 years ago

These search strings don't give the proper result:

[x] station gent dampoort: This should go to Gent-Dampoort trainstation but returns only a street. This string does work station gent-dampoort.
[ ] Provinciaal domein Puyenbroek: Should go to domain puyenbroek in Wachtebeke. This does work domein Puyenbroek.

Provinciaal domein Puyenbroek should be Provinciaal domein Puyenbroeck and then it works, in OSM there is also an incorrectly spelled bus stop that has Puyenbroek causing the bus stop to be found with the incorrect spelling.

We are using an external geocoding service and it is only as good as it is provided to us.
