These are used to mark large paved areas. Sometimes they exists
together with named regular streets. In such cases the unnamed
area may overshadow the actual street when computing the address
parent. As unnamed highways are not very useful anyway, we
simply remove them from the database.
If an addr:place is given but no addr:street tag, then bind
the rank 30 object always to a <=25 object, even when there
is none found with the same name.
When a place of rank 30 has addr tags that are not covered by the
search terms of the parent, add a separate entry for the POI in
the search_name table that includes the addr tags. We can only
do that with named places. For POIs without a name the housenumber
is used as name. If that is not available either, searching still
won't work.
Colons are used as a delimiter in tiger:left and tiger:right tags
when multiple postcodes are given. Ignore those. This was already
done in the postcode update script. This changes just makes the
two places consistent where postcodes are added.
place=postcode places are artificial places that collect addr:postcode
points for aggration. They should neither show up in the address nor
be searchable. That means that there is no need to index them at all.
Only let boundary=postal_code through which define correct areas for
postcodes.
Boundaries shound derive the address part type from the
linked place if possible. This was already implemented
for the address objects but not for the address information
from the address itself.
Fixes#1949.
It may happen that two different postcodes normalize to exactly
the same token. In that case we still need two different entries
in the word table. Token lookup will then make sure that the correct
one is choosen.
Fixes#1953.
Further reduce the size from which on POIs are no longer bound
to streets but only to larger objects. The point of reference,
of what a largest POI could be that is still bound is JFK airport.
Squares are now addressable (on address level 25) and thus can
be attached to a house number via addr:place. Needed to increase
the rank range for matching up addr:place to 25.
When computing the address parts for a geometry, we need to do
a ST_Relates lookup in the location_area_large_* tables. This is
potentially very expensive for geometries with many vertices.
There is already a funtion for splitting large areas to reduce the
impact. This commit reduces the minimum area of a split, effectively
increasing the number of splits.
The effect on database size is minimal (around 3% increase), while
the indexing speed for streets increases by a good 60%.
Always add contents of addr:* tags into address part of the search
table, even when there is no corresponding other name. This keeps
search tolerant to the kind of tagging where parts show up in the
address that have no corresponding object in the database or where
it is only an unaddressable object.
A place needs all lower address rank object indexed to make up
the address. The search rank no longer ensures that as it can have
a different ordering than the address rank.
This switches indexing rank order to address ranks. Non-address
objects (with address rank 0) are indexed together with POIs.
Before updating an admin boundary we need to make sure that any
artificially generated 'linked_place' entry is removed from the
extratags column. This ensures that the place designation does
not linger when a linked place disappears and that it is updated
when the linking changes.
An admin boundary might have a place tag but no matching place node.
We still should use the place value as indicator for the address
rank in this case.
After 6cc6cf950c names and house numbers
of POIS got mingled into a single item when creating the display name.
Add the house number as extra information without place_id to avoid
later mangling.
When the address rank of an admin boundary is changed because
of an attached place type, it may happen that the admin_level
hierarchy gets inversed. Avoid that by adjusting the address
rank if an inversion is detected.
So far we've used a buffer around a place node to define its
potential address reach. This had two problems: the buffer was
so large that addresses often contain false positives and the
buffer is really distorted when getting closer to the poles.
Change the buffer here to draw a bounndig box at a certain
distance in meter. This means that we always use the same
box everywhere on the planet and can make the extent much
smaller. Using a box has the advantage that it is much faster
to figure out if a point is within the box.
There are a couple of places with a search rank < 25 which are
not addressable like waterways and islands. We don't want them
to function as parents for POI-level objects. So use the
address rank for finding parents, not the search rank.
See #1815.
When inheriting an address rank from a linked place we
must be careful not to destroy the hierarchy established
through boundary admin_level. Therefore, before assigning
an address rank from a linked place, find the next higher
boundary in the admin_level hierarchy, look up its address
rank and then only use the address rank from the linked
place if it is higher.
With ranks being dynamically changed through linking of places,
it is important to reset the ranks on update, so that changes
of the rank due to changes in linking are correctly taken into
account.
The order of preference is now:
1. a post code on the place itself
2. a post code area in the address
3. the computed postcode from the place
Fixes#1723.
Removes the special casing for boundaries with a place
type in get_addressdata(). Instead the place type is now
returned as an extra field, so that the caller has to
handle the situation.
This fixes the details link next to the address in the details
view, which previously would go to a place class instead of the
original boundary class.
Having the same wikidata is a strong indicator that the same place
is meant. There are some assignment errors where the wikidata does
not link to the object itself but to something that mentions the
place. To reduce errors there, prefer same name.
The admin_centre role is for the seat of government which is not
the same as the administrative entity. This is mostly used
correctly these days, so avoid matching by that role.
Administrative boundaries that do not figure in the address
should still be able to take part in the name matching.
Use the rank_search for comparison in this case.
This fixes a regression where the area of the lower ranking
area was not computed correctly.
Also excludes postcodes areas now as they have their own
hierarchy.
