Hopefully this can be sorted out in time, as everyone probably noticed most commercial car navigations do offline address to address routing just fine. The Monav preprocessor used by modRana actually already generates a custom address lookup format, called Unicode Tournament Trie, but I have not yet been able to find any tools for working with this format from Python.
And the Monav routing server that modRana uses for offline routing doesn't seem to support them either.
Man, if you could enable offline routing and address lookup, I think it would be a killer feature. I dont know if any other phones or navigation apps do that, but it would be absolutely great for travelling as the data roaming isnt yet free in Europe. If anyone, you MartinK can do it. Go MartinK.

And ofcourse again thanks for the great software we got already.
