Good morning. I am a beginner of p.s.m. Firts I tried the following from the browser, and it worked and it still works: https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search?street=via+tolmezzo+15&postcode=20132&city=milano&county=MI&country_code=IT&format=json

Then I tried with php, with the following instructions, both from my pc that from a server, but it always return an Error 403. I read that this happens when there is an abuse, but it happened me from the very first submissmion. Thank you.

$data = array( 'street' => "via tolmezzo 15", 'postcode' => "20132", 'city' => "Milano", 'county' => "MI",
'country_code' => "IT", 'format' => "json" ); $options = array ( 'http' => array ( 'header' => "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n", 'method' => 'GET', 'content' => http_build_query($data) ) ); $url="https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search"; $context = stream_context_create ($options); $result = file_get_contents ($url, false, $context);

You are not following the Nominatim Usage policy, see here: https://operations.osmfoundation.org/policies/nominatim/

You'll have to be esp. careful about including a unique user agent for your application ;)

Thank you for your kind answer. I have read and I followed all these guidelines. It send me such response "error 43" since the first attempt, but all is right.

Afterwards,I tried from different servers and different connections. I also tried with curl. But It always gives me that answer.

Best regards. Vincent

No, you did not follow the instructions as laid out by the usage policy. I've added another hint in my answer above.

you should use an UserAgent var httpClient = new HttpClient(); httpClient.DefaultRequestHeaders.UserAgent.ParseAdd("Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; AcmeInc/1.0)")
