Error connecting to Nominatim webservice #49

Closed saormart closed 5 years ago

saormart commented 5 years ago

Hi, I'm facing this error "Error connecting to Nominatim webservice" when try to do the geocode process! Any solution for this ?

Thanks!

Nominatim is a 3rd party webservice (i.e. we don't control it) and they've just changed it, which breaks the tool in ODL Studio. I'm afraid there's nothing you can do on your end to fix this. The results from Nominatim aren't fantastic anyway - we actually recommend geocoding using the services of a company that specialises in geocoding for your country (if you google geocoding for your country you'll probably find one). As a result we'll probably 'fix' this issue by just removing the Nominatim tool from ODL Studio in the future...
