Linux geocoder program?

Question

I run a portable Linux box with an open street map tile server to provide maps for amateur radio emergency communications using APRS.

If needed to, I want a way to convert an address to a latitude and longitude where I do not have Internet connectvity.

Are there any Linux (in particular Ubuntu) geocoder utility's which will convert an address into lat/long?

a local geocoder with a database (are you looking for a world wide data?) see wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nominatim/… — Mapperz♦, Jan 5 '16 at 17:57

If you are working with US data then the Tiger Geocoder runs on Linux... see this link
