issue with get route from address - phocamaps 1.1.2

Post by f_vincent »

Hi,
I am having a problem with my map when using the feature " get route" from address. My address is:

19 Beech Glen St,
Boston
MA 02920

The coordinates have been set using it.
However, when using " get route" from another address, the destination "B" always shows as

64-98 Beech Glen St, Boston, MA 02119, USA
I don't have any clue to why it shows 64-98, instead of 19 as it should be.
Is This a phoca Maps problem? Or a Google maps related problem?
Can anybody help bring some clarity to this issue?
This would be appreciated.
Thanks for your time and attention.

Hey, Ive setup your details on my test page and it directed me ok.


I created a map and a marker using the same street address and it worked :) I got from Lawn street, boston directly to the marker position but then I zoomed in and could not see the street numbers so its up to you to know this area.

thank you Seroga for your response. If you visit this address http://www.bostonteachingchapter.csl.or ... &Itemid=76 you will see what I mean. Maybe you can provide some clues. Thanks for your time.

I believe that it's something to do with Google map coz my pointer is at the same spot as the final destination on your map. I think when you created your marker you actually dragged it to next door property which the current physical location for your property but Google map is actually working with its own data.
You can try to log a mistake with google maps - I guess Ive seen some option for this on google

Thank you guys for your responses. For the time being I've made it acceptable. It is now showing 17-19 which is all right. You are probably right, it is a google thing. Google also displays 17-19. Apparently, there's no position I can put the marker on, that will show only "19".
All the best
