Main repo (merged)

The process to add an address to here.com is not transparent. We should switch to an open source services, I suggest Open Street Map. The interest is double, making the contribution process clear and contributing to a common good.

I've now actually tested MapTiler in action and it works OK for other services than geocoding which is really bad with them. They are planning a new version of the geocoding service based on this discussion (not earlier than Q3/2020):

Another service I found that is based on OSM-data is Geoapify which actually provides all the functionality Decidim needs:

Their geocoding service also works great.

For open source self-hosted geocoding services, here's few more options:
