How would the link from Street to ZIP Code/City Name work? From what i
read there is currently no such link possible and its just a matter of
what is the nearest village/city/town.
How is this stored in other map databases e.g. commercial ones? Does
every path have an is_in equivalent link?
I mean every TomTom handheld device known which subset of streets to
search when entering a city name ...
