MapTiler Geocoding – release 2.15.23

This report provides a snapshot of our Geocoding services. We regularly update the indexes to integrate the latest data and introduce new search features.

  • Status: Upcoming
  • Production deployment date: 2026-09-23
  • Index version (data portal): 2.15.23

Main changes

  • Corrected postal codes for French addresses: Postal code areas in France overlapped with neighboring ones, so an address could be returned with the postal code of the adjacent commune (for example an address in Dijon returned as 21240, the code for neighboring Talant, instead of 21000). Addressed in this release – postal codes for French addresses are more accurate in both forward and reverse geocoding.
  • Global data refresh: Full rebuild of the global indexes, adding 536,346 net new features. This includes 446,089 new POIs, 49,118 new addresses, 16,372 new places, 13,942 new natural and landform features, 3,873 new roads, and 2,844 new postal codes.
  • Worldview update: Palestine is included in the United Arab Emirates (ae) worldview. The default worldview is unchanged.

Global and regional changes

  • Global: Full data refresh from recent OpenStreetMap updates and database improvements.
  • France: Postal codes returned for addresses no longer come from the neighboring commune.
  • United Arab Emirates worldview: Palestine is included.

The table below provides a comparison of feature counts between the previous and new database versions, and explain what the change means in practice.
