Nominatim Results Language

Naveen 8 years ago

Hi, Greetings!
I have setup a nominatim server and its working fine for reverse geocoding with traccar.
I am getting the address results stored in mysql database in arabic lanuguage.
However, when i pass the latitude and longitude to the same nominatim server via browser, i get the results in english.

is there a way to get the address results from Nominatim in English?
Please let me know.
Thanks in advance.
regards,
Naveen

As I said before

"You can set geocoder.language configuration parameter."

How to set this parameter described in this link https://www.traccar.org/configuration-file/

What value to set you have to check in nominatim documentation https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nominatim#Parameters

Thank you Abyss.

Adding

<entry key='geocoder.language'>en-us</entry>

in the configuration solved the problem.
Now results are in English.
