It should be found because OSM is a geographical database and the reception, or the multiple receptions as you asked before, is/are contained in the campus of the facility.
I think it's a relevant point. I would include the company/hospital/university etc. name in the reception name. Similar to how it's done to the building names in our campus: http://osm.org/go/0EujzVLy6?node=2727694798. Then the routing softawre can indeed find the correct way to the needed reception.
-1 OSM is a geographical database and not a yellow-pages listing of hierarchically structured names. The name="Math Building" of the XYZ university should be found because it is mapped on the campus, and not because it is named "XYZ university - Math Building" or consequently even worse "ABC country - DEF town - XYZ university - Math Building" Your ASML example is not good imho since acronyms are discouraged. tom _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
