GPS data interface from booking.com is not interpreted correctly

[Matthias]

Hi,



on the booking.com page you can show the location of the accommodation.



After selection: Display by oruxmaps, the position is not displayed correctly.



Obviously only certain GPS formats can be displayed by orux ?!



Can any settings be changed?

Hello,



the transfer of addresses from booking.com still does not work.



Is there no solution?

I can't find that option, only an option to open a map inside the web site,

Thanks for the answer.



Probably I have described that wrong.

I use booking.com App on Android 8.0.0

The app offers to view the GPS location and offers different and offers different applications.



This does work on google maps but does not with Oruxmaps.

Matthias,

i also had a look into the booking.com app.

But also in that app, i do not see any option to share/open some kind of GPS data.

The only thing i can "share" with other apps, is a booking.com specific link to the hotel.

Hi,



it's (at least... maybe in some other places of Booking app) when you have a reservation, and you click on hotel's address.

If you choose to "open with" Maps, Maps.me, OsmAnd, Earth, etc..., it works fine, and map opens on hotel's address

If you choose OruxMaps, appli (OruxMaps) opens, but remains on last location, and do NOT move to hotel's location.

Supplement:

... "remains on last location, and do NOT move to hotel's location"



In my case a wrong GPS location is specified / created.

[LaurentG]

OK.

Nevertheless, I confirm that in my case, OruxMpas opens, and nothing more happens, in particular, nothing is created.

Exactly the same behaviour than if I launch OruxMaps from "desktop" (I know, on a phone it's not the right word but I do not retrieve it...) by clicking on its icon, and not from Booking.

And this behaviour is ONLY with OruxMaps, different from behaviour with any of other "map" applications.



My OruxMaps version : 7.4.22

Android 7.0

The problem persists even with version Change to 7.5.4 GP

[Matthias]

The problem is still there also with Oruxmpas 7.5.7 GP



If I click on the address of the accommodation in the booking.com app, I get various apps proposed (which are installed on my mobile device), with which the selected GPS address is displayed.



If I click on Google Maps, OsmAnd or Locus Map, I see my accommodation displayed correctly.



But NOT for orruxmaps - unfortunately.

Hi,



I would like to ask my question again more detailed and visual.



After I booked an accommodation at booking.com, I can select the GPS position.

If selected a context menu will appear, that proposes different available / compatible applications to display the GPS position.



This works fine with all applications - except Oruxmaps.



Apparently, a "standard position" respectively the latitude zero and the longitude zero is transmitted.



Screenshots are attached.



This problem exists since I use booking.com, but I hope that there is an easy solution for this.



In any case, I would be very happy to have a solution.



Unfortunately I can not upload pictures - here the links to dropbox:

Hello!

I will add a message in the next beta version (after current beta42) with the information received by OruxMaps. I don't see information about what booking.com sends.

Hi,
the problem is still there.
I'm currently using 8.1.5 GP

[Matthias]

Hello,
is there an update?
I use version 8.1.9 - unfortunately I cannot transfer GPS data correctly to oruxmaps from booking.com.
