Hello, I downloaded this week a map of Austria from http://garmin.openstreetmap.nl/ and installed it on my Garmin-Navigator nüwi 255W. When I tried it out, it became clear, that the navigator couldn´t find the housenumbers of many adresses. I looked it up on the map of openstreetmap.org and saw, that in THIS map all the housenumbers were ok? Here´s an example screenshot:
If I search for "Schüttelstraße 27" (which is right of the river), my Garmin nüwi 255W will only find the "Schüttelstraße" as a whole and will send me to the beginning, although you can see, that openstreetmap.org knows the housenumbers of this street. Martin |
Thank you for the example. I have checked it and could not find anything strange for Schüttelstraße 27. It is the usual method of address mapping and the entry is over 2 years old. I assume that your Garmin can find housenumbers at all (for other locations), so please go for Simon's advice. As a workaround you could try other OSM-based Garmin maps. 1
I have a little experience with my Nüvi 205 and I think the problem here are the german special characters (in this case ü and ß). Try searching for a address without these characters and it should work as long as the address exists in OSM.
