It sounds like you make the post but never downloaded a copy of OfflineBot Smile

http://offlinebot.iroot.ca

Yes thats exactly what it does! it goes from ZERO to 200 for every street. And than under "Tools" you can edit your streets or build a "special" DB for MGMaps.

Thats why flat street names are needed.

City list is not needed, as you type it into the "City" text box

Filename: Budapest-streetlist.txt < looks ok except needed some replacement at the end of each line "I fixed it" Smile

and will post it for everyone at OfflineBot site later on.

But i haven't got a streetlist for the whole country so i'd like to search for the cites.

Geeee, I think the interface was straight forward Rolling Eyes

Yes it only searches by city + street names for that city. Entire country would be too much.

Oh noo!
The u. was not a strange junk item. It means street.
u. = utca = street

Please don't delete it Laughing

If dot(.) is not accepted then u. -> utca

Dmytro:

you said "hopefully there will be no streets with the samer name" in each city,

I live in perth and there are lots of streets with the same name!

Can offline bot extract each street within that suburb? and then perhaps list the suburb as well?

good luck!

Thats correct!

think of it this way when using GoogleMaps API, OfflineBot requests this address: http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=123+streetname+city+coountry&output=xml

so your street names may have some kind of area code or what we call "provinces" in Canada Smile

OK,

we have:

123 StreetName
Suburb, State

I have a list of all streets and suburbs, Is it possible for offlinebot to take the streetname and the city in the text file? that way we dont have to keep changing the cityname and can do them all at once?

Currently, Google maps does not support driving directions in India. So I guess there isnt much we can do with a list of street names for India?

I have now got a list of all street in Western Australia (basically half of australia is one state (province).

Is there a way of feeding the program a list of the streets and the cities

ie

Street Name : city name

or something similar...

would be much easier....

dmytro · Posted: Wed Jun 18, 2008 6:24 pm Post subject:

not really, I disagree.

Its way too much we are talking cellphone power here. besides its not like MGMaps is a Database server Confused

no it still reads from a file....and it is hard to do the offset reading. Rolling Eyes

Just have multiple lists for each city is simpler and than just type the city. You are not trying to extract the whole world with OfflineBot right? Shocked

palitu · Posted: Thu Jun 19, 2008 9:23 am Post subject:

there is over 41000 streets in the area im doing plus at least 50 suburbs.

all i want is the text file you feed it to find out what city the street is, instead of manually having to seperate the streets by suburb into seperate files and then for each file, type in the suburb name...

By the way, i am only doing one city "perth", but each street is listed under suburbs. So whilst they are all one city, each street is listed by tyheir suburb.

Should be too hard to implement in c#.
