#4811: admin_level 7 and 8 not prioritized when they have the same name
-----------------------+-------------------------
Reporter: windu2b | Owner: geocoding@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone:
Component: nominatim | Version:
Keywords: |
-----------------------+-------------------------
If I search
"[http://www.openstreetmap.org/?query=rue+Eug%C3%A8ne+boudin,+Caen rue
Eugène Boudin, Caen]", first and second results are streets with the same
name in other cities that Caen. The good result appears in third position.
In fact, first, second and third results designate 3 cities
(admin_level=8) in the same "french county" (admin_level=7), and the good
city and the county have the same name : "Caen", but not the same
admin_level (8 or 7), but Nominatim cares.
Nominatim should prioritize by the city name before the county name.
