Sarah Hoffmann 80e0a3cce4 change default rank for highway objects to 30
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.

Nominatim

Nominatim (from the Latin, 'by name') is a tool to search OpenStreetMap data by name and address (geocoding) and to generate synthetic addresses of OSM points (reverse geocoding). An instance with up-to-date data can be found at https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org. Nominatim is also used as one of the sources for the Search box on the OpenStreetMap home page.

Documentation

The documentation of the latest development version is in the docs/ subdirectory. A HTML version can be found at https://nominatim.org/release-docs/develop/ .

Installation

The latest stable release can be downloaded from https://nominatim.org. There you can also find installation instructions for the release, as well as an extensive Troubleshooting/FAQ section.

     make
     sudo make install
    
  2. Create a project directory, get OSM data and import:
