Description
Using the geocoder 4.1 test environment located at:
https://cmhodgson.github.io/ols-devkit/ols-demo/?gc=tst
Enter the following:
birds eye
and the geocoder returns:
Duncan, BC
instead of the correct match:
Birdseye Dr, Duncan, BC
but glue _birds_ and _eye_ together and hill together and you get the correct match.
This is because the compound word dictionary doesn't include the word _birdseye_. This dictionary wasn't designed for street names so there are many similar omissions.
