Hi,
I'm trying to use the Nominatim geocoder and to evaluate the quality of a given
result (by comparing the data returned with the data asked for), but here I
found a problem...
"Keilberg" is a suburb of "Regensburg". When querying it, for example...
q=rotdornweg, regensburg
..I'll get something like this...
"address" : {
"road" : "Rotdornweg",
"suburb" : "Keilberg",
"county" : "Regensburg",
"state_district" :
"Regierungsbezirk Oberpfalz",
"state" : "Free State of
Bavaria",
"country" : "Germany",
"country_code" : "de"
}
The information, that the city is called "Regensburg" is somehow totally lost.
Is there any chance to get the information about the city in the result? There
IS a marker for Keilberg in the osm map data with "isIn"
"Regensburg,Regensburg,Oberpfalz,Bayern,Bundesrepublik Deutschland".
Another example would be...
q=Gartenweg, Regensburg
...which results in...
"road" : "Gartenweg",
"suburb" : "Irl",
"village" : "Harting",
"county" : "Regensburg",
"state_district" :
"Regierungsbezirk Oberpfalz",
"state" : "Free State of
Bavaria",
"postcode" : "93055",
"country" : "Germany",
"country_code" : "de",
"continent" : "European Union"
Is this just a data error? Harting is not a village, but a suburb.
Regards,
Flo
