Hi, Like many of the US territories Puerto Rico lacks an addressing standard among other issues (road names, house numbering) (this is particular worse in rural areas) which is a problem in many aspects commerce, E-911, web calling, and like the recent Hurricane Maria reminded us a nightmare for first responders and emergency planing.
We are moving an initiative to address many of these issues in particular addressing and road name. We are particularly interested on solutions that can be easily translated to tangible results in GIS solutions (consumer grade GIS applications on the web and mobile). I was hoping to get some feedback on which addressing strategies (OSM tags/nodes, standards, conventions) are more suitable for geocoding services or just your personal experience on how geocoding services work when looking up an address/location. Also as a driving point on the importance (leverage) of OSM as a data source, Im searching for known map (GIS) services (mapbox, etc) using OSM data.
