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
