Comment (by lonvia):
For reference, the supermarket in question is this ALDI:
http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?osmtype=W&osmid=194775094
and the road it should belong to is South Ardmore Avenue:
http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?osmtype=W&osmid=22109380
Itś not really an error if you cannot find the supermarket using the right
address when Nominatim assigned the wrong one. The reason that the road is
not assigned correctly is that South Ardmore Avenue is rather long and the
ALDI happens to be at the very end. The current search radius in
getNearestNamedRoadFeature() is 0.01 and the centroid of the road is 0.015
away. Could increase the limit as a quick fix. I don't think it will hurt
performance much. Naturally, it won't solve the problem for the general
case. Any other ideas?
