[Geocoding] Gazetteer usability

[Nicolás Lichtmaier]

Hi! I have set up a local gazetteer instalation. I've downloaded a subset of
OpenStreetMap: Chicago.

However, the results so far are very disappointint. I've been learning about
OpenStreet map and found that the coverage for resolving house numbers is
nearly non-existing! The number of "ways" tagged with addr:interpolation is
just 14 in all Chicago, and the number of addr:housenumber is 71! Am I doing
something wrong? Is it posible to expect gazetteer to resolve addresses in
cities?

Do anyone know other alternatives?

Thanks a lot!
Nicolas.-
