Hi!
The OpenStreetMap Italia community was checking out libpostal, and saw something that could be improved.
My country is
Italy
Here's how I'm using libpostal
libpostal was recently discussed in the OpenStreetMap Italia chatroom. The community is not familiar with the libpostal internals, but here is some feedback.
Here's what I did
./libpostal "via rialto n.10, 33100 udine"
Here's what I got
via rialto n 10 33100 udine
via rialto numero 10 33100 udine
via rialto nord 10 33100 udine
vicenza rialto n 10 33100 udine
vicenza rialto numero 10 33100 udine
vicenza rialto nord 10 33100 udine
Here's what I was expecting
n 10
is unexpected, it is not expanded tonumero 10
.via
is so common and so different fromvicenza
that the expansion did not feel plausible to the community. I can see howvicenza
may come from toponyms.txt containingvicenza|vi
, andvia
theoretically being a typo ofvi
. As a native speaker, it feels quite stretched of a reasoning. To be fair,vicenza
is always being ordered belowvia
in the output, so I'm not sure if anything should change here.
