Data source: locations with OpenStreetMap (OSM)

[raphodn]

Currently

We currently link each Price to a Location.

Backend

The data is fetched in the backend from Nominatim.

It is defined by a unique set of osm_id & osm_type.

Frontend

There is currently 2 ways to find a location (OSM POI)

• full-text search using Photon Komoot
• ID search using Nominatim

Idea

We're looking at returning POIs given GPS coordinates (latitude & longitude). Nominatim and Photon Komoot both do NOT support this. So we'll most likely use Overpass.

Is there a unique location search engine that would allow us to search on all 3 ?

• by keyworkds/adress
• by OSM ID
• by GPS coordinates (return all shops in a radius of X meters)

Linked issues

• Create a Location model #13
• Improve location text search (alternative to Nominatim ?) --> Photon Komoot API open-prices-frontend#61
• Price form: improve location selector open-prices-frontend#37
