hello,
i have a list of cities/villages which people freeform filled as their
residence. many of them i managed to geocode, but still around 2% are
misspelling (missing letter, exchanged letter, ...) and some are
different (abbreviations, cities outside of slovakia) and some are
village parts (which i added to OSM and managed to geocode afterwards)
eg Banka Bystrica -> Banska Bystrica, Vranou nad Toplou -> Vranov nad
Toplou, ...
it has extremely long tail, which i refuse to do by hand :)
what would be the easiest option to connect misspelled names to their
properlyspelled counterparts?
thanks
michal
