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

[Diana Shkolnikov]

Pelias is built to have minimal dependencies. Currently all you need is
node.js and Elasticsearch.

As for response times, it's difficult to say how response time will change
once all your private data has been indexed. It will be a function of the
amount of data and the density of data at any given location. With that
said, Pelias is still in Beta and hasn't been tuned for performance just
yet.

You can get an idea of current performance with OSM planet, OpenAddresses,
and Geonames here: pelias.mapzen.com

To perform a reverse search do something along these lines:
