[Talk-ca] Do we tag addresses on buildings or on separate nodes?
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 Bruno ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca

Sometimes retaining the address-numbering ways improves clarity, even when every node has an address. For example, Wildwood Park in Winnipeg has a numbering logic that is almost impossible to discern on the ground, even for long-time residents of the neighbourhood. Seeing the ways rendered on the map makes it evident. http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=18/49.84682/-97.13276 Michael Z. -- Michael Zajac http://zajac.ca/ +1-204-943-6596 > Interpolations are generally regarded as approximations until we can get > individual addresses mapped.

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.
