Commercial Hosted Nominatim Built for Canada
All the benefits of OpenStreetMap Nominatim with the uptime, speed, and rooftop address accuracy required by production Canadian applications.
Missing Canadian House Numbers
OpenStreetMap's coverage in major urban cores is excellent, but outside downtown Toronto or Ottawa, civic house numbers are frequently missing from the map.
When an address is missing its number, public Nominatim instances drop to the center of the road or town, causing delivery drivers, bailiffs, and field technicians to be sent to the wrong location. Furthermore, public OSM servers prohibit commercial production workloads and enforce strict 1 req/sec throttles.
Enriched with Statistics Canada (ODA)
Before compiling our Nominatim and Photon data engines, we merge over 10 million municipal civic addresses from Statistics Canada’s Open Database of Addresses (ODA) into the extract.
Your software gets accurate rooftop coordinates across suburban and rural Canada without changing a single line of your existing Nominatim integration code.
