Kviria is in beta and covers the contiguous United States: latitude 24.4 to 49.5, longitude -125.0 to -66.8. More areas are planned.

Outside coverage

A position outside those bounds gets none with an out_of_coverage evidence entry. This is the real answer for a position in London:
The turn is never charged. It counts toward the free turns, like any other turn of an account without a balance. Tell the user the place is outside current coverage. Do not try other positions.

Inside coverage

Inside coverage, none means Kviria looked and found nothing that matches. It never offers an invented place instead. When the user asked for a kind of place, category names it. Say so to the user, and ask for a nearby business, a landmark or a street address instead. Do not try other house numbers: on a street whose doors are not in the data, every number answers none.

Why the data varies

Kviria’s places and addresses come from open map data. How complete it is varies from area to area:
  • Some streets have no house numbers in the data, so an address on them answers none.
  • A business that opened recently may be missing, and one that closed may still be listed.
  • A place’s recorded position can sit some meters away from its entrance.
To see how an area answers before you rely on it, try it in the Playground.
