The Script is already looking if there is a place which is: * near by and * have the same name If it found such a node it merge the OSM and the OpenGeoDB Node. To do this, the bot use osmxapi with [place=*]. If you look to "Example Data" on http://svenanders.openstreetmap.de/opengeodb/ you would see nodes with postive IDs (that are nodes used by OSM) and nodes with negativ IDs (that are new nodes).
