Finding Los Oros

Posted by iiEarth on 27 June 2018 in English.

This problem has having me troubled for long: When I search my city’s name, why does it show a tertiary road called Calle Orós instead of my city? Whenever I want to know how to get to my city to, suppose, Katsnelson or Dolala, I have to always search up from Blaan instead of my city, which isn’t that accurate in the sense of time.

Hopefully someone knows why…

Nominatum is still down and un-updated, and the technical guy for that just came briefly into OGF. The system is now in shambles; even some old locations cannot be found for some reason.

I believe Turnsole80 is learning how the system works so that he can update it. He’s as fed up with it as the rest of us.

I certainly hope that’s true, Par. It would highly welcome news.

Bah… typos. *It would be highly welcome news. Sorry, folks.

FYI martinum4 has been in contact with admin during the past two weeks… says he has rented a new server which hopefully will help him automate the Nominatim and Routing updates.

Hey guys,

Thanks for your replies and time. I hope that the Nominatum will be updated soon :D.

@isleno thanks for telling us about the behind the sences.

I thought maybe we should also have a technical team on this nominatum, so that it will be maintained and updated even if the automated server is down (touch wood), or martinum4 is not available to help.
