You are probably looking for a geocoding service. The main OSM geocoding service is documented here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nominatim If you are bulk geocoding (which it sounds like you are) please note the usage policy: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nominatim_usage_policy Unfortunately there isn't a bulk geocoding interface for this service, you will need to code something to send requests to the API one at a time with a second (or more) of delay between requests. answered 19 Dec '12, 14:01 twain 2
Another possibility is to install a local copy of Nominatim (and import the data into that). There are instructions here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nominatim/Installation And there's also a virtual machine image available that contains a version of Nominatim and a tile server: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Virtual_machine_image (you'd need to import data into that too).

You can store the query results. The license is the same as any other OSM data: Data © OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL 1.0. http://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright So see the various questions/answers on here about what you can do with OSM data - it is the same answer.
