In some locations a number such as ‘511/240-250 Example Street’ also indicates that the unit 511 is on the 5th floor From: Andrew Harvey Sent: Wednesday, 13 July 2022 12:17 PM To: Graeme Fitzpatrick Cc: talk-au@openstreetmap.org Subject: Re: [talk-au] Is addr:housenumber=2/20 likely to be valid?

Agreed. In Australia "32A" refers to the street number. (In the US, it is common that 32A means apartment A at street number 32, but not in Australia) - Ben.

I feel comfortable using the unit number as in the examples above.

In answer to your question though, yes "1/50 Example St" notation is quite common. It is probably well understood, although not universally used. "Unit 1, 50 Example St" is also used, as is "U 1 50 Example St". These would all be tagged as: addr:unit=1 addr:housenumber=50 - Ben.

Re: [talk-au] Is addr:housenumber=2/20 likely to be valid?
Hey Mateusz, The "sub address" that the reporter is describing are subdivisions with individual unit numbers. The unit number should be mapped using addr:unit, rather than included as part of the house number. For example, a postal address of 1/50-52 Smith St should be mapped as: addr:unit=1 addr:housenumber=50-52 Unfortunately, the default carto rendering of unit numbers (with the unit after the house number, "50-52 1") looks wrong and confusing to Australians. Putting the unit with the housenumber is a way to force a "better" rendering.
