Probably someone has had this idea before me, but what about creating a first-level division in the affected countries, called "Special/overseas territories"? Under it, the next division could contain the name of each territory for example.

Must have been fixed by now, all I see is " :flag-es: Barcelona 08002". All of location, zip, flag and dotmap are coherent.

Only a user itself can change his wrong postalcode. But it might have been possible that this user saw your comment here :wink:

I have created cityprofile nr. 174120 for "your" Livo and used the name used by wikipedia.it - because there are more Livo's in Italy

And Agay is a town in the department Var, not in the department Vendee.

Well, there are two frat hoods how to enter names in the "city" input field. There are those who thinks that names of municipalities only (Helsinki, Siilinjärvi, Rovaniemi...) should be entered. And there are those who enters the name of the actual post code area.

In Helsinki all the the streets/roads are listed in post code areas carrying the name Helsinki (even though there is one exception: the road Vanha Hämeenkyläntie is carrying the code of 02680 Espoo). Elsewhere it's not that simple since the boundaries of post code areas don't always follow the boundaries of concerning municipalities. It's easier to input notes just the by the post code area name rather than the municipality.

An example: Let's take the post code 64770...
* by the post code area name: Äystö (as recognized by Suomen Itella Posti)
* by the municipality: either in Kauhajoki or in Teuva (or Övermark, the Swedish name of the latter)

Almost every year there has been mergings of municipalities. One day there might be about 20 municipalities in Finland. A local hit in the future municipality of Lapland could give a distance of several hundreds of kilometres. Well this is a reality even now: a local hit in Enontekiö (Kilpisjärvi - Hetta) would have a distance of ca 132 km.

Speaking of local hits. I found the distance of this Joutsa - Joutsa hit to be too short. The correct coordinates of Joutsa, post code 41710 is 61.994300842285 / 25.973499298096 giving a distance of ca 28-29 kilometres.

Just happen to stumble across this:

Long Island is the entire island (what gives it away), best to rename the profile Elmont, NY, as that is the location of the ZIP code.
My NIG stats have finally disappeared. My EBTST stats are still available.
