    Hello @Makss_0613, we are aware of potential map errors around the world. However, this problem should be addressed to Open Street Map, since we use their maps and have no control over them. Once the map is corrected on OSM, it takes some time for the changes to be reflected in the application as well. You can read more on this issue here: https://community.windy.com/topic/4649/how-to-correct-errors-in-the-base-maps

    Actually admin entities in OpenStreetMap data do contain all required admin levels, while different geocoding engines may return all or part of them to geocoding queries. E.g. OpenStreetMap site returns expected admin levels (here, same search as above for "Palmyra" on US map coverage), when using Nominatim geocoding engine: [image: 1630739648158-e6d7e56e-c980-4ccb-81cf-e8fa6dd02982-image.png]

    Please note that my original reply referred in particular to the below bolded items regarding how to solve this issue. Because the data is not controlled by Windy and instead comes from OSM. Please also note that my reply is a standard template that covers all possibilities - because being an international site with multilingual users we receive these 'wrong name' requests every week, and sometimes every day. I'm pleased that you may have indeed found the problem, but that is why I referred you to OSM in the first place... Please open a support request on the OSM forum for further assistance with their platform. Thank you for your understanding :) @jmh2002 said in Wrong place name: Please see the following posts about how the map data for Windy is sourced and displayed from www.openstreetmap.org: https://community.windy.com/topic/4649/how-to-correct-errors-in-the-base-maps https://community.windy.com/topic/5564/disputed-territories-on-windy Please also note: For every language, a different place name label can be displayed, so please choose your correct language and data display. Further discussion of place name and language issues or disputes should be directed to the OpenStreetMap Forum here: https://forum.openstreetmap.org/index.php > scroll down & select > users: (the relevant country for your dispute and/or question) In the case of a political dispute please leave such topics out of the Windy forum and instead focus on the discussion of weather. Changes made in Open Street Maps do not occur instantly in Windy and will instead be updated periodically in the future. Thank you for your understanding :)
