WORLD'S
PREMIERE!
We, at GPS Moldova Team, are
proud to announce that we have implemented something
that nobody else has ever done before -
we found the possibility
to implement for all
Garmin devices the full address search up to the non-standard house
numbers,
i.e. building numbers with fractions and those which contain letters!
The problem with Garmin software is
the following: address search is only possible for
purely numeric house ranges, because the house number
search menu of most devices
does not have the buttons for typing the fraction sign or any letters:
The elegant
solution that we found completely solves this problem,
the idea being
to substitute the fraction symbol with "00",
and in such a way, e.g. the house number
7/6 is written as 7006,
number 47/1 - as 47001,
202/3 - as 202003, etc.:
In a similar fashion we solved the problem with house numbers containing letters:
first the
numeric house number's part is entered, then type in
"00", followed by:
1 - for letter A
2 - for letter B
3 - for letter C
4 - for letter D
5 - for letter E
9 - for letters F...Z (there are very
few of them), except letters
V (put 7) and G (put
8).
Respectively,
for house numbers based on Cyrillic alphabet,
we type "00" and:
1 - for A / À
2 - for B / Á
7 - for V / Â
8 - for G / Ã
4 - for D / Ä
5 - for E / Å
9 - for letters Æ...ß
(there are very few of them).
Therefore,
the house number 17a shall be typed in as 17001,
number 4b - as 4002,
24c - as 24003, 175v - as
175007, 8k - as 8009, etc.:
