Find results that match an osm_tag (Not filter after search). #785

Closed mb12 closed 7 months ago

mb12 commented 7 months ago

Hello, Is there some way to find all results that match a particular OSM tag. Such a search query would not have the "q" parameter.

For e.g. something like this to find all restaurants.

?osm_tag=amenity:restaurant&limit=50

Please note that I am not trying to filter results after search. I want to find OSM objects that much a particular tag in the view port and drop pin there.

Tools like Overpass API (which can be installed locally) are better at "all Z around X,Y" type queries, especially if you're looking for 10s or 100s of results.

@mtmail Thanks for the response. I only want to run elastic search instance in the production to serve such queries. I want to serve all search queries via elastic search instead of running a separate postgres server in production for these queries.

PS: I am not looking to download OSM data covering an area. I already have OSM data imported in my development machine in planet_osm* tables. nominatim imports everything into postgres first via osm2pgsql as the first step. photon uses this db as an input data source to create an elastic search index.

One use case for such a query would be to implement "Explore nearby" kind of functionality that's available in Google maps etc.

See https://github.com/komoot/photon?tab=readme-ov-file#filter-results-by-tags-and-values Tag filters can be used with reverse to filter for certain objects by OSM tag around a geo coordinate.
