Hi everyone! I am trying to retrieve cities from zipcode_state. Here is the code:
The problem is that fro certain zipcode_nazione it doesn't return the right city. For example: 23841_ITALIA it returns Avellaneda that is in Buenos Aires not in Italy. How can I get the correct city? Is there something I am doing wrong or some more accurate method, package, library I can use? Thanks, Carlotta. asked 31 Mar '20, 17:10 Carlotta |
Nobody has added an address in Italy with that postcode to the OpenStreetMap data yet. Right now https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search.php?q=23841+ITALIA returning a residential road in Argentia. You already set OpenStreetMap has no central reporting tool for missing data. We often rely on people living the area to add data. I hope setting the countrycodes filter will return more results for your other postcodes. answered 31 Mar '20, 19:53 mtmail 1
Update: I found the address of a local golf course with the postcode in their website and added it to OpenStreetMap. The Nominatim database updates its postcode database once per night (London time).

Thank you a lot, I will try with countrycodes and see how it goes. Thank you for adding this postecode to the OpenStreetMap website. How can I do it if I find other postecodes that are not in the OpenStreetMap data yet?
