[Geocoding] Help : How to import our own data into nominatim instead osm data sets

[Diana Shkolnikov]

Hey Neel,

Pelias would be able to support your need. It has been written to be data
agnostic. Don't hesitate to reach out our team. We will be happy to help
you set things up.

Here's a recent discussion around someone else trying to import their own
data into pelias: https://github.com/pelias/pelias/issues/83

You can play around with our public instance here: pelias.mapzen.com

Or check out the demo here: mapzen.com/pelias

Cheers,
Diana
