  title: Nominatim Deletable Lookup API
  description: 'Nominatim is an open-source search engine for OpenStreetMap data. It can be

    used to find places by name and address (forward geocoding) and to derive

    address information from coordinates (reverse geocoding). Nominatim is

    developed under the BSD 2-Clause license by the OpenStreetMap Search team

    (osm-search) and is hosted at https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org by the

    OpenStreetMap Foundation as a free public service.


    Self-hosted deployments are common; commercial hosted Nominatim is also

    available from MapTiler, LocationIQ, and Geocode Earth, among others.


    Use of the public OSMF instance is governed by the Nominatim Usage Policy:

    https://operations.osmfoundation.org/policies/nominatim/ — a hard limit of

    no more than 1 request per second is enforced across all your traffic, and

    a meaningful HTTP User-Agent identifying your application is required.
