OpenStreetMap
Did you know there is (next to the well known Nominatim) a new open source geocoder (“Name and Adress Search”) built for OpenStreetMap data?
See osm.wiki/Photon
(found this link via osm.wiki/Search_engines )
The demonstration website on komoot.de is quite impressive! I had a wish for such a feature (incremental and instant search) for years!
Anyone who finds wrong results or missing features / data?

I didn’t found any wrong result. I can just say WOW.! Personally I’m more comfortable with this search_engine that with nominatim … It’s more user-friendly (Imho) and the Search-as-you-Type feature is very effective and impressive. thank you for mentioning and thank to the komoot developers for this jewel!

Very interesting stuff. I practice material on the subject. I found this one Steve’s blog.

Wow, this is great! Results are good, and search-as-you-type is really neat. Nominatim is more like the main OSM map: good for debugging and for inspecting the map for problems. Nominatim is no match for Google Maps search - but this search engine might be!
Drawbacks of Komoot against Google so far:
Btw. the cycle tour planner at Komoot is quite remarkable as well.
