[Typeahead suggestion] Missing street numbers #738

Closed baneJack closed 12 months ago

baneJack commented 1 year ago

When I enter an address (number and street), the suggestions are not exhaustive.

Example: When I enter an address (number and street): "14 Rue des Annonciades, Meulan-en-Yvelines" the suggestion is only "Rue des Annonciades, Meulan-en-Yvelines" without the street number. For some addresses, I have all the information (number and street).

Photon uses data from OpenStreetMap. OpenStreetMap data doesn't contain any house number 14 for this street https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/599926487

There are housenumbers but 14 is missing, which I would expect around here: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/599926487#map=19/49.00613/1.91066

The end result is the same. Photon can only suggest house numbers that are in the underlying data. Closing as data issue.
