I am trying to find a local BMW repair for Dortmund, Germany. According to Google Maps , a BMW dealer is located nearby at 51.48488,7.4687013.
The following query matches the dealer listed above: maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/nearbysearch/json?location=51.4842556,7.474081&radius=20000&language=en&name=BMW&key=API_KEY
{ "name": "BMW Niederlassung Dortmund", ..., "types": [ "car_repair", "car_dealer", "store", "point_of_interest", "establishment" ], ..., "vicinity": "Nortkirchenstraße 111, Dortmund" }
However, if I am a more specific type (type = car_repair), the aforementioned dealer does not match: maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/place/nearbysearch/json?location=51.4842556,7.474081&radius=20000&language=en&name=BMW&type=car_repair&key=API_KEY
I am sure that the second request coincided with the mentioned dealer in the past ...
Any suggestions?
