Hi,

I am a GSoC student making a script using pywikibot to find categories for
Images on commons[0]. One thing I was trying was to use the GPS
coordinateds given by the camera (in EXIF data) to find the location and
add the place's category to it. For example, if I take an image of the
Eiffel Tower it should auto add Category:Paris to it.

For this, I was trying to use the Nominatim service from OSM.
http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org is not meant for bulk finding the
geolocations and limits the query rate at 1 query / minute.

I was wondering whether the OSM api was also available on maps.wikimedia.org ?
And whether the Nominatim API is hosted and working ? I wasn't able to find
any documentation about it.
Also, is there any documentation on query limits and so on ?

Regards,
Abdeali JK
