Hi all ! I tried to install my own Nominatim server and I have some issues with the responses it returns. I need to run a reverse geocoding service which is able to return information such as country code, state/region and locality(city, town,...) but nothing more specific. I have created a new osm file using osmosis, from last-week planet file, with a the tag-filter option to get only elements(nodes and ways) with tags boundary, border_type and place and imported it using Nominatim setup script. While I was running some tests, I noticed some errors in Nominatim response(Moscou with US country code, bad state in Rennes, France(Pays de la Loire instead of Bretagne, ...). Of course, the Nominatim instance running on Poldi returns valid information. Does Nominatim need all OSM data (streets, ...) to be efficient or did I miss something (a tag ?) ?
Thank you in advance for your help. Charles
