Name of area for PMS not shown correctly (in Türkiye)
-
I have a local Davis Vantage Pro2 Plus private weather station on an address in Antalya, Türkiye. The station is placed on the map very precisely. The local area where it is located in is named "Hurma Mahallesi" or short "Hurma Mah.". Despite the very precise location entered by decimal coordinates, Windy says the weather station is placed in Gursu Mah., that is more than 500 m from the station.
I have included 3 pictures. One showing Hurma Mah. with a red border around. One showing Gursu Mah. with a red border around. And one measuring the distance from the station to the border of Gursu Mah.
I have tested on Windows with different browsers and both from Denmark and Türkiye. My location does not change the information from Windy.
Why is Windy being wrong about the location?
The link to the station is found here:

@Rolandoz Hi, I am afraid that this won't be changed now. We take map data with all labels from OpenStreetMap.org and this is automatically selected.

@Suty Okay. Just wanted to point out there is a minor problem.
I have checked OpenStreetMap. Actually it is correct, meaning the station, placed in Paradise Residence, is within the area of Hurma as you can see from the arrow. So why does Windy show it as being in the neighbor area?
