Why won't it let me enter house numbers?
@lagiraudiere I tried to find out Informations about a proposal for "associatedStreet" and couldn't find any. So I have no idea, how this scheme has been accepted "officially" in OSM. But anyway: it exists and is in use. And…

Why won't it let me enter house numbers?
@lagiraudiere: ok "associatedStreet" is in use but as I wrote above it's still not approved in OSM-Wiki, but the alternate "Karlsdruhe Scheme" is. For me there schould be just one tagging-scheme for adresses, but that should…

Long distance ferry routes
Another example: http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/23567561 This ferry-route is about 400 m long but you need about 15 km or so more to come from Knightstown to Caherciveen without it. And so for me "important ferry" is pretty relati…

turn lanes not displayed
I just checked way http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/55932797 and found out that it is not mapped as a secondary_link according that wiki-page http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Link_(highway) . Such situations with "bypasses" will p…

private way
@SunCobalt: Reading upper posts you will see that the blocking of access=destination should only happen under that reason: http://forum.mapfactor.com/discussion/comment/4840#Comment_4840. In Navigator you would see it as "blocked road" (wi…

Hi Martin, there was a mistake in my lasT post. I wrote: "Please think about to do the same with access=customers and customers=destination (see here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:access )." Instead if "customers=destination…

Hi Martin, I propose the way you handle access=private now (but I didn't wake up early enough to say that befor your last post). Please think about to do the same with access=customers and customers=destination (see here: http://wiki.openstree…

Long distance ferry routes
Reading this I understand now, why this problem exists: http://forum.mapfactor.com/discussion/3845/private-way#Item_5 So we got a conflict. But you can solve it that way: Allow routing through "highway=service" only if there are no other p…

Hi tomas, sorry, but the editing a few days ago had nothing to do with the "access=private"-tag. "access=private" is there since 1.Jul1.2011. riedlblower wrote that above and you see it in the way's history. Maybe its becaus…

As I've seen at German OSM-Forum http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?pid=345339#p345339 according to a mailing-list lane-assist now should work. I simulated the route shown on that picture http://up.picr.de/15083158ku.png and got the l…

Alarm by POIs: wrong signal
The Problem is the way how speed cameras are collected in OpenStreeMap. Most of them are beneath the street as a point (node) without any relation to the road. So Mapfactor will warn you, if a speed-camera-node is near the street, because in some ca…

how to make turn lanes in osm appear in mapfactor free?
As far as I know arrows on a street in Germany correlate to the next highway-junction. A cyclelane has it's own arrows. The Glacisstraße is splitted at node 20929591 because the mapper meens to tag some meters of the road with foot=no, because…

how to make turn lanes in osm appear in mapfactor free?
Hi you Martins, in general it's ok that lane-restrictions should be shown on motorway or trunk. But I dont confirm with the opinion, that its not really necessary inside of (bigger) towns. As a stranger there it can be very stressful to find th…

Hi Martin, following the Wiki "straight", "to_left" and "to_right" is mapped wrong. I corrected some and wrote a mail to the mapper. Also I found out, that something's wrong on the wiki-page http://wiki.openstre…

Hi Martin, maybe I can clear it :-/ Your example "Berliner Allee" seems to be gathered incomplete. Please compare with this. There are more lanes at the "Fuchsbäumer Weg" and also http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/192270665…

Hallo jose1711, I think that there will be no real chance to support lanes and turn lanes in Navigator Free, until there is no mainly accepted way to map them. As far as I know there is just one scheme allready approved since March 2012: http://wiki…

Who provides the OSM maps for your Android app?
By the way: In OSM-database there are a lot of public toilets (amenity=toilets) on rest areas near motorways, in cities etc., but Navigator free doesn't show them. I think, there is a lot of people who sometimes need that information urgent an…

Cross Border Routing
The reason could be, that there's no defined town centre for Brest in the database of OpenStreetMap. I found just city borders. And so it's not accessible. Try any POI like mainstation or so. Another solution could be, to let you show Bres…

OSM License change - making maps ... buggy?
Hi, I saved all the actual maps I'm sure they include the data before the Licence-change-bot in OSM began to work on my SD-card in an special folder. Next navigator-map-updates I will "missuse" for quality-controll of OSM-data. If I n…

Priority Map Updates Voting
I agree with riccie in 1. and 4. Strong tourism is a relative option. If there's no massive download or a lot of change, why they should be updated? Although I'm german, why Germany should be preferred, if it doesn't get higher priori…

MapFactor Navigator free Android: maps remove
Hi Rikky, maybe there's a less "brutal" method using the map-updater-tool by unmarking these maps there. Unfortunately I get no internet to test here with my smartphone. Check it if you want.

Hi Rikky, on my Samsung Galaxy S+ the maps are in folder /mnt/sdcard/navigator/data. There you can delete them. HTH Michael

Being anywhere without routing but searching for a POI by name (lets say McDonalds or Starbucks or...) the shown POI's are not sorted by distance to my position and so it's impossible to route to the next reachable. Please implement.

If day-/night-mode is automatic car-mode needs to be activated and will be activated while starting Navigator. Ending Navigator car-mode stays running but should be stopped. Fixed to 0.9.103+
