Hi all. I am new in Nominatim. I am using Mapbox geocoding and wanna to switch to Nominatim, but at the same time I am also using Mapbox Map. Is Nominatim accurate enough to have the same or similar result to Mapbox geocoding api? Thanks. |

Yes, similar. Mapbox uses government (official, closed source) data in some countries. But they also use a lot of OpenStreetMap data, I think it's still their main source. As usual coverage depends on region of the world. |
