The map is querying Mapbox's map data - so using a data dump would be a cleaner way of doing this. I've added a space to the query now - ' St' - which seems to pick up a lot of the errors - except for the saint (St.) examples. I don't think that Mapbox's 'in' expressions allow you to only search atKeir Clarkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07052313829398691711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12158290.post-37829085844314852952020-01-06T17:14:22.081-05:002020-01-06T17:14:22.081-05:00Hi @Keir, in your erratum you use the example that...Hi @Keir, in your erratum you use the example that <i>'Saint' will be mistakingly <i>[Sic]</i> coloured red.</i>, but I think the examples from @Anonymous are more accurate because 'in' should be looking for those two characters together, thus "Stroud", but NOT "Saint", as in your disclaimer?<br /><br />Are you querying OSM live?

As you've spotted the map colors streets red based on whether they have 'st' anywhere in the name. So all your examples do indeed show up as red on the map.Keir Clarkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07052313829398691711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12158290.post-35418282565343826212020-01-04T12:43:46.711-05:002020-01-04T12:43:46.711-05:00Have very much enjoyed Google Maps Mania over the ...Have very much enjoyed Google Maps Mania over the years, and the idea of Medieval Streets and Modern Roads is convincing. However, there is a glitch in the new map. Roads with St in their name are showing up in Red. Examples include Stockwell Road, Streatham High Road, Stable Yard Road, Stroud Road, St Mary's Close, St Aldate's, St Giles - to take some examples from London, Gloucester, Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
