3 : location; The middle point of the street in HEXEWKB

6 : is_in ; where the street is located (generally the city)
7 : type; The type of street (see bellow)

This is not that easy as you'll have to combine street names with cities (+village+country+zipcode) names while the import ...

Also if you do it this way I would rather use a real search engine
      like lucene or elasticsearch.

Regards,
Peter.

 
An idea is to import roads shapefiles from geofabrik.de in spatialite and make a sqlite database. 
>After that you can search database for street names. 
>Resulted SQLite database contains also the path of a street (a collection of geopoints) so you can reverse make a reverse geocoding.
