Geocoder issue

CesiumJS

Hello,

We have noticed a minor issue with geocoder - sometimes it lists same item multiple times (see screenshot - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B75v2-OXIsfLYmo0RmNuUlZncmM/view?usp=sharing)

Thank you

Hi there,

Good catch! Looks like there are two different entries for Huntville (associated with two different locations). This is a data problem, not an issue with Cesium.

Thank you Rachel

It is not specific to Huntsville. Same is for New York, Chicago, Madison and many other locations.

Is there a way to control what data source Cesium uses for geocoding? Seems by default Cesium uses multiple data sources.

Thank you

Hi there,

By default we use bing, but you can change the provider for the geocoder data. Here’s a sandcastle example for how to do this: http://cesiumjs.org/Cesium/Apps/Sandcastle/index.html?src=Custom%20Geocoder.html&label=
