Resolves a couple of situations where a mixed use of places areas and
administrative boundaries would result in a hierarchy that did not
properly respect the contains relation.
When moving the finding of linked places to the precomputation stage,
it was also moved before the statement where the linked_place_id was
removed from the linkee. The result was that the current linkee was
excluded when looking for a linked place on updates because it was
still linked to the boundary to be updated.
Fixed by allowing to either keep the linkage or change to an unlinked
place.
This is needed for pedestrian areas mapped as multipolygons
and consequently as relations. The lookup in placex guarantees
that the referenced OSM object is indeed a street.
Fixes#2669.
The inherited housenumber is needed for display output. We can't
take the one from the housenumber field because it is already
normalized. Remove the inherited address only when reindexing.
Fixes#2683.
Automatically repopulate the tokenizer/ directory with the PHP stub
and the postgresql module, when the directory is missing. This allows
to switch working directories and in particular run the service
from a different maschine then where it was installed.
Users still need to make sure that .env files are set up correctly
or they will shoot themselves in the foot.
See #2515.
Convert the '_place_*' entries back to normal entries before
returning them in the 'namedetails' section. If the name field is
duplicated, kept the '_place_*' notation. This preserves the previous
behaviour before _place_ names were introduces but adds the additional
names from the linked place for reference.
This keeps the names tracable and ensures that all names are searchable
when they differ. Do not keep names when they are exactly the same
to save some space. Linked names are cleaned out before relinking.
Mutations are regular-expression-based replacements that are applied
after variants have been computed. They are meant to be used for
variations on character level.
Add spelling variations for German umlauts.
The highway key is being used more and more for non-ways these
days. This clashes with Nominatim's assumption that essentially
everything that has a highway tag can be used as the street part
of the address.
Change the default rank of highway objects to 30 to avoid this.
Only the known values for streets keep the rank 26 and are now
listed explicitly.
Adds a tagger for names by language so that the analyzer of that
language is used. Thus variants are now only applied to names
in the specific language and only tag name tags, no longer to
reference-like tags.
When matching address parts from addr:* tags against place names,
the address names where so far converted to full names and compared
those to the place names. This can become problematic with the new
ICU tokenizer once we introduce creation of different variants
depending on the place name context. It wouldn't be clear which
variant to produce to get a match, so we would have to create all of
them. To work around this issue, switch to using the partial terms
for matching. This introduces a larger fuzziness between matches but
that shouldn't be a problem because matching is always geographically
restricted.
The search terms created for address parts have a different problem:
they are already created before we even know if they are going to be
used. This can lead to spurious entries in the word table, which slows
down searching. This problem can also be circumvented by using only
partial terms for the search terms. In terms of searching that means
that the address terms would not get the full-word boost, but given
that the case where an address part does not exist as an OSM object
should be the exception, this is likely acceptable.
A boolean check for dynamic changes of address parts is not
sufficient. The order of choice should be:
1. an addr:* part matches the name
2. the address part surrounds the object
3. the address part was declared as isaddress
The implementation uses a slightly different ordering
to avoid geometry checks unless strictly necessary (isaddress
is false and no matching address).
See #2446.
Linked places may bring in extra names. These names need to be
processed by the tokenizer. That means that the linking needs
to be done before the data is handed to the tokenizer. Move finding
the linked place into the preparation stage and update the name
fields. Everything else is still done in the indexing stage.
The new icu tokenizer is now no longer compatible with the old
legacy tokenizer in terms of data structures. Therefore there
is also no longer a need to refer to the legacy tokenizer in the
name.
Postgresql is very bad at creating statistics for jsonb
columns. The result is that the query planer tends to
use JIT for queries with a where over 'info' even when
there is an index.
The BDD tests cannot make assumptions about the structure of the
word table anymore because it depends on the tokenizer. Use more
abstract descriptions instead that ask for specific kinds of
tokens.
Compound decomposition now creates a full name variant on
import just like abbreviations. This simplifies query time
normalization and opens a path for changing abbreviation
and compund decomposition lists for an existing database.
We've previously added searching through rank 30 in a house
number search to enable searches for house number+name.
This had the unintended side effect that rank 30 objects
are also returned in s search that dropped the house number
from the query. This is wrong because POIs cannot function
as a parent to a house number.
This fix drops all rank 30 objects from the results for a
house number search if they do not match the requested house
number.
- only save partial words without internal spaces
- consider comma and semicolon a separator of full words
- consider parts before an opening bracket a full word
(but not the part after the bracket)
Fixes#244.
The ICU library only offers transliterations for a limited set of
script. Add transliterations for missing scripts from the PostgreSQL
module. These means that the same selection of scripts is supported
as with the old module.
The tokenizer to be used can be choosen with -DTOKENIZER.
Adapt all tests, so that they work with legacy_icu tokenizer.
Move lookup in word table to a function in the tokenizer.
Special phrases are temporarily imported from the wiki until
we have an implementation that can import from file. TIGER
tests do not work yet.
This adds an installation step for PHP code for the tokenizer. The
PHP code is split in two parts. The updateable code is found in
lib-php. The tokenizer installs an additional script in the
project directory which then includes the code from lib-php and
defines all settings that are static to the database. The website
code then always includes the PHP from the project directory.
Indexing is now split into three parts: first a preparation step
that collects the necessary information from the database and
returns it to Python. In a second step the data is transformed
within Python as necessary and then returned to the database
through the usual UPDATE which now not only sets the indexed_status
but also other fields. The third step comprises the address
computation which is still done inside the update trigger in
the database.
The second processing step doesn't do anything useful yet.
Drops all calls to PHP utility functions. nominatim cli functions
are used where possible, to stay as close to the final code as
possible with the tests.
By removing the PHP calls, the test code now only uses osm2pgsql and
the database module from the build directory.
Always look up the closest housenumber before looking up
interpolations. This ensures that closer housenumbers are
preferred over interpolations.
Fixes#2214.
So far the data directory constant has pointed to the source
directory to be usable with different subdirectories. Now only
the data subdirectory itself is being used with the constant,
so point to the directory directly.
This replaces {data_dir}/settings throughout the code, so that
the configuration may be placed somewhere else in the directory
structure (e.g. in /etc).
The PHP scripts need to know the position of the nominatim
tool in order to call it. This is handed in as environment
variable, so it can be set by the Python script.
In the future, the BDD tests will simply set up the required
test database themselves. Like with the template database, it
is not reimported when it already exists unless that is explicitly
forced.
Makes most of the API tests currently fail because they still
point to old test data.
Introduces a new class DBRow that encapsulates the comparison
functions. This also is responsible for formatting more informative
assert messages. place and placex steps are unified.
Put the connection to the test database into auto-commit mode
and get rid of the explicit commits. Also use cursors always in
context managers and unify the two implementations that copy
data from the place table.
The project directory contains the website script as
configured through the test configuration. This means
that tests are now completely independet of any
configuration that may be contained in the build
directory.
Also removes the hack to inject additional settings via
a environment variable.
DB tests now can simply set the environment to change configuration
variables. API tests still rely on a configuration file.
Also, query.php needs to set up the CONST_* variables to work with
the query scripts. That is a tiny bit messy and duplicates code
but this part will need to be reworked later.
CONST_BasePath is split into separate configuration variables
for binaries, libraries and data. These variables as well as
the installation path are now set in the executable directly and
no longer configurable via project settings.
This is the first step towards an installable software. The
executables should know per installation where to find their
necessary data to execute. Project configuration needs to be
restricted to settings that really concern the specific Nominatim
installation.
Update names in the coutry_names table on the fly from incomming
OSM country data. Adding a small sanity check that the country
must be an OSM relation and within the area where we expect the
country to be.
If a place node is already linked against a boundary, it should not
be used for linking again. It is usually a sign of a mapping error,
when there are multiple boundary candidates. This change just avoids
inconsistent data in the database, it does not guarantee that the
linking is against the more correct boundary.
Rank 30 objects usually use the address parts of their parent.
When the parent has address parts that are areas but not marked
as isaddress, then the parent might go through multiple administrative
areas. In that case recheck if the right area has been choosen
for the object in question instead of relying on isaddress.
Note that we really only have to do the recomputation in the
case of 'isarea = True and isaddress = False' which hopefully
keeps the number of additional geometric operations we have to do
to a minimum.
There is one more special case to be taken into account here: a
street may go through two administrative areas and a house along
that street is placed in one of the area while the addr:* tags
says it belongs to the other. In that case we must not switch
the isaddress to the one it is situated. To avoid that recheck
the address names against the name of the ara. That is not perfect
but should cover most cases.
Fixes#328.
House numbers need special handling because they may appear after
the street term. That means we canot just use them as the main name
for searches where the address has its own search term entries.
Doing this right now, we are able to find '40, Main St, Town' but not
'Main St 40, Town'.
This switches to using the housenumber token as the name term instead.
House number tokens can get special handling when building the search
query that covers the case where they come after the street.
The main disadvantage is that this once more increases the numbers
of possible search interpretation of which we have already too many.
no penalty for housenumber searches
The previous behaviour was a left-over from a former version
where such POIs parented to the street. Now that they parent to
places, it should be included.
get_addressdata() now also checks if the place itself has entries
in the place_addressline table and merges them into the results.
Also restrict checking for address tag places to cases where the
name cannot be found in the parent's address search terms. Looking
up all address tags is just too slow.
While previously the content of addr:* tags was only added
to the list of address search keywords, we now really look up
the matching place. This has the advantage that we pull in all
potential translations from the place, just like all the other
address terms that are looked up by neighbourhood search.
If no place can be found for a given name, the content of the
addr:* tag is still added to the search keywords as before.
Go back to using centroid when determining if one admin level
is within another. There are cases where boundaries are slightly
misaligned due to mapping errors (not using the same ways in the
relations).
Only declare boundaries the same when they have the same wikidata
tag _and_ have exactly the same geometry. This works around tagging
errors with the wikidata tag, which happen because of automated
edits to the wikidata tag.
The Polish community maps admin boundaries that span multiple
levels by duplicating the boundary relations. Detect this situation
by looking out for matching wikidata tags. The higher ranked
duplicates are then thrown out from the address pool by setting
their address rank to 0.
