Hi,
today I tried to look up an address on openstreetmap.org. It was "35516
galen place, fremont". I got a result from Nominatim in the right spot
on the map (confirmed by Google Maps). I was then very surprised to not
find the address in the OSM data. Only the residential "Galen Place" is
mapped, no individual houses let alone addresses though, nor any
interpolation.
After some discussion on the German forum
(https://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?pid=690815) it was
speculated that Nominatim draws from TIGER database (|SELECT
place_id||FROM location_property_tiger |in the debug output).
Could someone enlighten me how and in which locations Nominatim uses
additional data to OSM? What is the priority?
Thanks,
Tobi
