Hi, I surveying from Northern India. I studied how addresses are to be tagged in order so nominatim can locate it. That went great. The problem is the every house has to be tied to a street (addr:street). 1) We don't have names for living streets 2) We so many times have blocks or sectors (tagged as locality or hamlet)
Just to get the parser work accurately I had to name closeby living_street street as "Sector 46" or "Block B" - which when rendered would look very strange cause that should only be name of the area and not the name of street. But that is the only way I could successfully parse address such as "19, Block A1, South City II, Gurgoan" or "1532, Sector 46, Gurgoan" which are exact postal address. So is there a way that I can tie a addr: to a hamlet/locality instead of street? (I installed Nominatim myself to be able to hit-and-try and learn the exact way, therefore these example addresses won't work on live on current data.) Please suggest, Vikas
