Hi, we are happy to announce a new stable release 2.5.0 of the Nominatim search engine.
This release brings a major overhaul of the built-in web interface. There is now a web view for reverse geocoding and the details page has been made more readable. All is now ready for mobile use. The second major change is the addition of a number of new functions for the API: - reverse lookup now can use Tiger house number data in the US - new feature to return simplified polygons - new lookup endpoint that allows to look up address information for OSM objects by id - new namedetails and extratags parameters to get a full list of names or additional tags for each object (requires postgresql >= 9.3) Other changes include updates for the Tiger data import script, new configure options for use behind HTTP proxies and vagrant scripts for running Nominatim in a Ubuntu or CentOS virtual box. The release is already live on http://nominatim.osm.org.
