Hi, I am having trouble with nominatim geocoding addresses in the North
Dock area of Dublin
I think this is because the administrative area is divided into "North
Dock A ED", B ED and C ED in the following relations
https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/4283341
https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/4275228
https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/4275227
so, when searching for an address such as "Liffey Trust Centre, Sheriff
Street Upper, North Dock, Dublin" nothing is found but looking for
"Liffey Trust Centre, Sheriff Street Upper, North Dock B ED, Dublin"
works just fine. Would it be possible/desirable to put a "North Dock"
administrative area as the superset of A B and C? or is there some other
approach that would make geocoding better for people who don't know the
address (don't think the A/B/C bit is in day to day use)
Alan
