I have a problem with the search in LoPoints.

For example, I am looking for a parking lot nearby (see screenshots).
Map : LoMaps.

1st screenshot: I have found a parking lot on the map. ("Parken")

2nd screenshot : Properties of "Parken"

3rd screenshot : I check whether the LoPoint is available nearby.

The LoPoint "Parken" is available nearby (22m distance)

4th Screenshot : I search for "Parken" in the LoPoints. The 1st parking lot is found in 14 km. The parking lot 22m away is not found.


This problem is not limited to "Parken". The results are the same when I search for other terms, such as a signpost or a bus stop.

Hello Jack,
good observation. Indeed, points with identical names to the category they belong to, do not appear in the search results. I see currently no simple solution, sorry.

During the second half of this year, we should start work on the new version of the offline LoPoints database, which should also solve this problem. Unfortunately, this will be available only in the Locus Map 4.

- LM 4 Beta download, LM 4 Release download

Thank you very much. Then I know that there will soon be a solution for LM4.
