Adding a district number breaks the search in Hungary

Open biodranik opened this issue 1 year ago • 5 comments

Users expect to find the address by specifying its district (9):

9. kerület üllői út 161 https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/265244225

Our search interprets the leading number as a house number and ignores the last number. It looks like a generic issue.

Should process place=borough https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/1552463

Honestly saying, I have doubts that place=borough is a suitable tag here ..

admin_level = 9 might be useful too. https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/1552462 The most correct format for this search would be: Budapest IX. ker., Üllői út 161.

Budapest + roman number of district is often used instead of just Budapest. not sure if this is helps at all

What could help is moving the search boundary to Budapest if the viewport is Hungary, because "kerület" always means it's in Budapest. English users might use district (etc.) so that complicates things though... (FWIW Google Maps translates Arrondissement-s in Paris to kerület and district as well.)
