I would like to update the OSM database (upstream) if I couldn't find the address of latlng using Nominatim using either Android/IoS/Webapp.
Please help me how to achieve it using API.
Thanks.
After too much search. I found the api usage in github

I'm implementing a map using openstreetmap which you guys know it is 100% free. So I want the same approach talking about searching addresses with a textfield. Is it that possible? Or I really have to generate an API key for Google or other provider like Mapbox? Thanks in advance
Here is my map
You can use Nominatim. Either setup your own server (recommended), or use their public API and conform to their rules. Note that, if using their public API, autocomplete is strictly forbidden.
I have a web application that has to be linked with a graph database (Neo4J). Is it possible to read or write data to Neo4J using Appery?
I have chosen Appery because I am a beginner when it comes to databases and Appery seems to be easy in using REST API, as well as there is a free trial.
Feedback would be highly helpful. Thanks in advance.
Edit: I am aware that Neo4J uses Cypher queries. I would like to know if Appery supports Cypher as well.
Side note: The reason I am asking the question here without trying it out is because I dont have an active DB and my application is private due to my company's security policy
You can do that as long as Neo4J database has a REST API. If it does, then you can make calls to it from an Appery app (from Server Code or API Express). Hope this helps.
Does OrientDB HTTP API provide functionality to drop a database?
I couldnot find any reference for the same in the OrientDB documentation related to its HTTP API
https://orientdb.com/docs/2.2.x/OrientDB-REST.html
I used Postman, and you can do that using DELETE command like this:
Hope it helps

I don't know if my question is valid or not,I use nominatim search engine but it can't make auto-complete search so I decide to use pelias by mapzen, my question is that is it possible to import data from nominatim to pelias? How?
Thank you
If you're running a local instance of Pelias you'll need to run the Pelias OSM data importer to index all the venues and addresses in OSM. Pelias uses elasticsearch so it won't work with Nominatim's database as-is.
Not answering your question about pelias but instead the one about Nominatim and auto-completion.
Take a look at Photon. It supports auto-completion and as far as I know it uses a regular Nominatim database. I've never used it myself though.
It might be also worth to look at other OSM-based search engines / geocoders.
I need to create a local reverse geocode service for my specific country using open source maps.
My first option is OpenStreetMap so I downloaded my country PBF file.
Can anyone give any idea on how to start using this data? or other options?
There are already various search engines for OSM available. The most popular one currently is Nominatim. It supports both geocoding and reverse geocoding.
Well, you could start of by reading the wiki, I guess it would be interesting to find out which node / way / relation tags you would use as an input. Apart from that you should have an understanding of the best data structures for the task, I guess you want to perform nearest neighbor queries, so you might need to implement / use an R-Tree for that...
