G-NAF Import Tools for MySQL

These tools are for manipulating G-NAF addressing data provided by PSMA Australia.

MySQL Import

To import data into MySQL or MariaDB, proceed with the following steps.

Delete old files if present:

git clone [email protected]:superloop-ltd/gnaf.git
cd gnaf
git clean -xdf

The download link can be found at PSMA Geocoded National Address File (G-NAF) under 'Files and APIs', then 'PSMA Geocoded National Address File (G-NAF)(ZIP).'

Download and unzip:

wget https://data.gov.au/data/dataset/19432f89-dc3a-4ef3-b943-5326ef1dbecc/resource/4b084096-65e4-4c8e-abbe-5e54ff85f42f/download/may19_gnaf_pipeseparatedvalue_20190521155815.zip
unzip `basename !$`

Ensure that you have at least 20 GB available on your /var/lib/mysql partition. Create database:

GNAFDB=GNAF_201905
mysql -u root -e "CREATE DATABASE $GNAFDB"

Pipe the generate SQL script into the MySQL database:

time ./import-mysql | tee /dev/tty | mysql -u root $GNAFDB

Allow a while for the import to process. It could take more than an hour depending on your hardware.

Example Usage

Locality-based Levenshtein Ranking

If the suburb/locality is known, this yields fast results:

SET @term = '7 HIGH STREET';
SET @locality_pid = 'SA1533';
SELECT ft.*, LEVENSHTEIN_RATIO(SUBSTRING(address_search, LOCATE(SUBSTRING_INDEX(@term, ' ', 1), address_search), LENGTH(@term)), UPPER(@term)) similarity
FROM ADDRESS_SEARCH ft
JOIN LOCALITY l ON (ft.locality_pid = l.locality_pid AND l.locality_pid = @locality_pid)
ORDER BY similarity DESC, LENGTH(address_search)
LIMIT 10;
