I think the boundary=postal_code makes a difference after all compare
http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?place_id=52527679(Waterkluiskaai) which uses the postal code point with http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?place_id=64725723(Bonheidensteenweg) which uses the postal_code boundary, which is an extra relation in this case. It does not extract the postal code from the admin level 9 boundary. I'll admit that for another part of that street ( http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?place_id=83522405) it still uses the (wrong) postal code point from Bonheiden. Maybe something was not updated ? Althought the dates do not reflect that regards m On Thu, Dec 5, 2013 at 5:19 PM, Bart Van Lancker <b...@vlweb.net> wrote: > > > > > <I used the place= node as admin_centre.
