JEM 5.0.0 RC1 : Get GPS coordinates applies wrong city

JEM 5.0.0 RC1 : Get GPS coordinates applies wrong city

3 months 1 week ago - 3 months 1 week ago
#33796
Venue data in database
  • Street :  Diestsestraat 49
    Post code: 3000
  • City : Leuven
  • County : Vlaams-Brabant
  • Country : Belgium

Get GPS coordinates says :

OpenStreetMap suggests checking: Street: Diestsestraat 49; Post code: 3200; City: Aarschot; County: Flemish Brabant; Country: BE
  • Latitude : 50.981669
  • Longitude : 4.837061
This is the same address but in the wrong city !

The result is that "Venue map" show this venue in the wrong city.
Is this an OpenStreetMap glitch ?

The real coordinates (from Google maps) are 50.8802552  4.7012324
With these coordinates the venue is shown at the correct place

I agree, this happens.
Those who have the old googleAPI can move the marker to the right place and then use these coordinates. 
Would be fantastic, if this would be possible in OSM too!

Fixed.

Apply this commit in JEM 4.5.0 RC1:
github.com/jemproject/JEM-Project/commit/b7ca4e9d2e124f1b7ab43e19e0940ce31830ad08

Apply this commti in JEM 5.0.0 RC1:
github.com/jemproject/JEM-Project/commit/a676107e8668d3eefe850d5832161fcd5209ede4

Check it and let me know if it works. It now searches by venue name (with or without address) and shows up to 5 matching places, allowing the admin to select one or cancel if none match.

I do not know how to apply a commit, so cannot test.
Waiting for a new RC1 zip...
