Re: [talk-au] Nominatim gives wrong suburb?

2010-05-13 Thread John Smith
Either the ABS boundaries might be wrong, or the boundary has moved
since 2006, or where you think the boundary is, isn't where the ABS
thinks it is, it's borderlineish though...

Actually, I think I know what might be going on. The property is
clearly within the suburb of Annerley, however, the property's
associatedStreet *is itself a suburb boundary*.

Maybe Nominatim is unable to deduce the suburb of such properties -
maybe it flips a coin, and in this case it got it wrong.

If that's the case, is the street numbered?

If it's not numbered and the suburb boundaries aren't ordered then
it's a likely outcome.

Not sure what you mean by that. This is the example properly:

If the houses have street numbers odds might be one suburb, evens the other...

[talk-au] Ways incorrectly tagged as admin boundaries?

2010-05-13 Thread Balram Ramanathan
Hi,
I've come across a handful of Ways with ABS data attributions that are
(probably incorrectly) marked as administrative boundaries. They are:

http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/14191309
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/13807736
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/14192887
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/16420310
http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/28262742

All of them are in southern WA and were edited by the same user. Given
the au.gov.abs tags, could this be the result of a misfiring script?

A couple of them (notably 14191309) also have other tags that look wrong.

Cheers,
Balram
