UK Postcode location "create data for new location"

[jamesbm]

Hi PVSOL team.

Has something changed when using "create data for new location" using UK postcodes.

 

Recently the pin is a distance away from the desired location.

 

I ran a couple of tests -

OX12 9SN - 2km away from correct location

OX13 6BS - 4.2km away from correct location

 

In both cases entering the postcodes into Google Earth gives the correct location.

 

Sorry if this has been fixed recently, I need to pay for my maintenance (I will pay this week I promise!).

Update: just upgraded to R5, problem isn't resolved.

Hi jamesbm,

thank you for reporting, I forwarded this issue.

Best regards,

Any news on the fix from this? It is a bit painful trying to locate a building twice (once for meteonorm, and again for 3D modelling). On other mapping tools the postcode takes you to within a few meters of the building and this was the case in PVSOL until recently.

 

Thanks.

Hi James,

sorry for not replying to you earlier. Yes, we are already looking into this and hope to have it fixed for the upcoming release PV*SOL premium 2021 R7. If it is a server issue that we can fix right away, we will let you know.

Kind regards,

Martin
