Problem with reverse geocoding

0

Hi, I want to ask you if there has been a problem with the server response and GPS acquisition problems in recent days. The server doesnt respond to reverse geocoding, or the runetime is very long for it.

Please, do you have a similar problem or experience?

For example, here is URL link for check.

http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search.php?format=xml&limit=1&city=olomouc&county=okres%20Olomouc

Thanks.

Your test link is a gecoding link, not a reverse geocoding link. Reverse geocoding is via the "reverse.php" endpoint.

Yes, on the server response, see https://github.com/openstreetmap/Nominatim/issues/1543

GPS acquisition problem is likely something unrelated to OpenStreetMap.
