A Dockerized version of photon, an open-source geocoder built for OpenStreetMap data, running on GraalVM.
- Built on GraalVM Community Edition for optimal performance.
- Easily deployable on Docker Swarm.
- Supports small- to large-scale geocoding operations (e.g. for DaWarIch).
- Storage: The downloaded database requires approximately 200GB of storage space.
- RAM:
- For high-performance instances, at least 16GB of RAM is recommended.
- For smaller instances queried occasionally, 2 to 4GB of RAM should suffice.
While weekly updates are provided for the database, they are not automatically downloaded and/or processed. To update your database, remove the existing database from the photon_data volume and restart the stack to download a new version.
- Tom Snoei for original implementation.
- GraphHopper for providing the database.
