Hello again OSM experts, I installed Nomitatim and imported data of one state (Maryland, US). It looks working. But when I query for geocoding, I always (or most of the time)got in returned result class="highway" and type="residential", while same query on openstreetmap website returns class="place", and type="house". Can someone tell me what I might be missing here? Thanks in advance! TJ asked 16 Jul '13, 14:54 OSM-TJ2013 twain |
In the USA the openstreetmap instance has tiger data loaded in addition to the OSM data. You can find information on how to do this in the response to this question. You should be able to just load data for Maryland rather than the whole data set. answered 16 Jul '13, 15:39 twain Thanks! That "tiger" link does not work anymore. I found this link: http://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/data/tiger.html. But there are not EDGES files. Will the Shapefiles work? Thanks again! TJ

Never mind, I found it from another old comment. I will try it out and get back here with results.

You can try ftp://ftp2.census.gov/geo/tiger/TIGER2012/EDGES/ for a newer version of the data if you wish although I'm not sure this has been tested yet.
