Hi, This is my first post on this mailing list, so I'll try to present myself a little bit. I'm a french DevOps usins OSM for myself and for my customers, I'm working as freelance and do some DevOps tasks and a little bit of developpement. My experience in PHP is more than 14 years, I'll do also some python, perl and erlang too, I well known Debian and GNU/Linux systems.
So if I write here it's because I maintain a nominatim serveur for geocoding on a bbox that covers Europe, so I loaded it with an export from geofabrik (thanks to them) and now run hourly update on it. If I well understood, the update process load worlwide datas in the database, so I propose to add an option --bbox to Nominatim to filter the changes. The option will have the same structure as osm2pgsql and the value will be set on osm2pgsql command line using it's option '-b'. Before doing the patch, I wanted to discuss it about you, what do you think about and have you some hints ? Best regards, PS : I've already found the Github repo of Nominatim and done a first PR on the munin plugin nominatim_importlag, my nick on github is 'rodo'. -- Rodolphe Quiédeville Expert Tsung - Consulting en performance des SI Tel : 06 13 79 63 41 http://blog.rodolphe.quiedeville.org _______________________________________________ Geocoding mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/geocoding
