The interpolaton computation needs information from the osm2pgsql slim tables which may not be available when the data is inserted. Insertion now only adds a line with basic address information to location_property_osmline. The line is then split during the indexing, leading to more lines (which are complete in that case) being inserted. Fixes #598.
Nominatim
Nominatim (from the Latin, 'by name') is a tool to search OpenStreetMap data by name and address (geocoding) and to generate synthetic addresses of OSM points (reverse geocoding). An instance with up-to-date data can be found at http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org. Nominatim is also used as one of the sources for the Search box on the OpenStreetMap home page and powers the search on the MapQuest Open Initiative websites.
