Description bugspamme2012 2011-07-26 00:46:43 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 1.2) 
OS:                Linux

looking for a bar in ireland? you should enter 'pub' if you you want far more results. but what other types of poi's can i search for? a drop down list of acceptable poi keywords would be very useful.

Reproducible: Didn't try


Actual Results:  
have to guess poi keywords

Expected Results:  
list of acceptable poi keywords should be displayed somehow

I plan to work on a category grid view or similar to select POI categories in a simple way.

Comment 2 bugspamme2012 2011-07-27 00:51:32 UTC

sounds good. i see on the openstreetmap website 

http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nominatim/Special_Phrases/EN

that there are hundreds of different types of poi.

if the data actually exists in the downloadable maps, would it be possible to create a dialog to select some of these types and for the user to add it to the grid along with the default set that you'll be implementing?

this would be a unique feature for marble , as most gps apps only allow you to select the 'usual suspects' of poi's.

if this could be done, then people could search for 'fountains' or 'windmills' or whatever their tourist/hobby niche interest is.

Comment 5 bugspamme2012 2011-07-27 04:15:51 UTC

a bit presumtive, but have uploaded a screenshot of OSM2go on maemo which has a nice dialog for fine grained poi selection as an example, in case you think the idea is worthwhile.
