Searching for places in Vientiane, Laos, I discover that SFE office (an NGO whith whith which I am volunteering much of my time) still appears at it’s old place, when the correction has been made on OpenStreet map over 6 months ago.

- [Old place with route to Setthatirath Hospilal](https://maps.openrouteservice.org/#/directions/Setthathirath%20Hospital%20and%20International%20Clinic,Vientiane,Laos/Service%20Fraternel%20d'Entraide%20(SFE),Vientiane,Laos/data/55,130,32,198,15,97,4,224,38,9,96,59,2,24,5,192,166,6,113,0,184,64,70,0,24,2,96,14,128,54,0,88,0,231,32,86,0,105,240,29,148,129,56,6,96,250,231,152,27,136,153,114,197,40,118,40,197,187,58,197,135,49,0,196,4,0,14,169,224,68,77,135,40,0,94,80,2,218,231,206,65,82,232,16,1,155,192,3,110,151,8,115,81,80,5,160,14,236,138,192,107,36,1,205,228,133,62,142,110,141,14,136,134,11,103,130,25,7,167,170,27,14,139,2,0,11,228,148,0,0)

Hey,

our client at [maps.openrouteservice.org](http://maps.openrouteservice.org) is using Pelias as a geocoder, where we have not updated the data in quite a while.

Our client at [routing.heigit.org](http://routing.heigit.org) (see [New Web Client - Shutting down old clients](https://ask.openrouteservice.org/t/new-web-client-shutting-down-old-clients/8072)) uses Nominatim as a geocoder, where data should be up to date.

Best regards

If you click on the tool icon at the top right, and then on “Sprache ändern” (Change language) you should able to switch to English.
