Hi Gilbert Your are getting no result because there are more than 100. And the xLocate stops if it will detect more as 100 possible results. You can switch off this behavior if you set the FrequncyFilter=0. You can do this directly if you add the following paraeter in the native-default.xml: <Freque...

Normally the DetailLevel for extended postalcodes should be higher than for postalcodes. For some reasons when the xLocate API was defined the decision was made that the enumeration for extended postalcodes is 2. And because of compatibility the enumaration of the DetailLevel can't be changed.

The abbreviations are part of the binary map data, depends on the language (not the country) e.g. st is in englisch the abbreviation for street and in german for sankt. If you like to extend the abbreviation table you have to report it to the data department. An abbreviation is replaced by a full wo...

The reason is the name of a city is a point (City Center POI) tha we are getting from the data provider. The postal code is an area so we have to calculate the point by ourselve. Both point are also different on Here WeGo. Searching only for the postal code 2016: https://wego.here.com/directions/mix...

If you switch off the phonetic search there are request where you are getting a better result but maybe you will also find some requests which are getting worse. If ...

I have to correct myself the parameter STREET_HNRPOSITION is working an has influence on the result. But only for certain requests ;) If you are searching for City=Berlin and Street=Strase 3 and set STREET_HNRPOSITION=0 you should get a result list with the street Straße 3 and Privatstraße 3. If you...

The xLocate should normally treat these automatically. But in cases where you have a typo in the street name e.g. you are searching for Berlin, Strase 3 the xLocate will find a wrong street. In such a cases it could also be helpful to switch off the parameter SEARCH_PHONETIC. Because if the xLocate ...

Hi Metin I ckecked the parameter STREET_HNRPOSITION and could reproduce your observation. No matter which value I have entered for STREET_HNRPOSITION the result is always the same. So it seams that this parameter depricated. Do you really need this parameter? And the next question is why do you need...

1) the replacement of an ä, Ä or ö, Ö in swedish is probably ae or oe and not only a or o
2) As far as I know there is no possibility to configure the FindSuggestion.
