    • Hello Genesis !

      This is an email that you set in the Studio->Settings->Location->Nominatim email to identify requests field. 

      • Hello LeonidS

        I posted a similar question on April 21, 2021 in the UNA 12 Webinar #3 comments section but unfortunately I didn't receive any answer from Andrew. Here is what I posted:

        'By the way, Andrew, in the webinar I see that in the Location settings, you left the field 'Nominatim email to identify requests' empty. But on the OSM page on github it says:

        'If you are making large numbers of request please include an appropriate email address to identify your requests. See Nominatim's Usage Policy for more details.'

        So if we had to fill out this fied with an email address, should we enter whatever email address or should that email address be registered somewhere on the OSM server or website first? Thanks'

        Please LeonidS, can you answer this question? I think that it is related to Genesis question too. Thanks.

        • Yes. It relates to my question. The question is, am I supposed to use my personal email like me@gmail.com or is there a special email that I need to use from OSM?
