Are web cameras an appropriate source for OSM?
Specifically these ones from the BC Ministry of Transportation and
Infrastructure.

A user in Seattle added surveillance cameras and police radio tower in
Downtown Seattle. As long as the source doesn't have a copyright issue, I
think cameras are appropriate. Especially since they can be surveyed.

[Talk-ca] Do we tag addresses on buildings or on separate nodes?

2013-10-24 Thread Bruno Remy
Hi,

What do you think of this blog?  Adress nodes versus interpolations?
That's quite confusing :-/

What is the OpenStreetMap convention? Do we tag addresses on buildings or
on separate nodes? http://t.co/tjRiwYSXLF

Interpolations are generally regarded as approximations until we can get 
individual addresses mapped. The post in case was about if was more common to 
map a building with an address as one way with a building tag and address tags 
or as one way with a building tag and a node with address tags. It is more 
common to use a way with both a building tag and address tags by at least 10:3.
