The Nominatim API is an OpenStreetMap project. It helps developers get location information about POI (Points of Interest) on a given geographic area .
Here you find more about it : http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nominatim
This Java project does just that. Connects to Nominatim API and gets location data about POI such as attractions, museums, cinemas and much more on a geographic area of Northern Italy.
The data can then be analysed and or visualized as below :
I plan to extend this project in the future with more clasess that analyse the data and visualize it in different ways so stay tuned.

@datatreemap I think you were trying to document the use and merits of Nominatim API.
Or is it a suggestion to utopian to adapt?
Please be clear on your contribution.
