A number of the errors you report are simply double spaces, or trailing
spaces. An automated edit should be able to fix these without drama.

[Talk-GB] UK Postcode Analysis

[Robert Whittaker (OSM lists)]

As I've been adding quite a few new addr:postcode tags as part of the
quarterly project to use the FHRS data, I began wondering what the
overall state of addr:postcode tags was in the UK. I've started doing
a bit of analysis, which has began by checking the OSM postcodes
against the Code-Point Open dataset.

The first output I've produced is a list of likely errors where
addr:postcode values either do not have the appropriate formatting or
do not match an entry in Code-Point Open. There's quite a large number
of such errors, although it's pretty small as a percentage of the
total addr:postcode tags.

If you're interested, have a look at
http://robert.mathmos.net/osm/postcodes/osm-errors.html and see if you
can help by fixing any of them. Some will be errors in source data,
but others could well be typos and transcription errors.

Robert.

Re: [Talk-GB] Quarterly project - taginfo tracker

[Greg]

Hi Steve,

I’m glad you’re finding the tool useful and thanks for your suggestion. I’ve 
added a feature request in the issue tracker here 
[https://github.com/gregrs-uk/python-fhrs-osm/issues/20]. I probably won’t have 
time to look at this over the coming week, but I may have time at some point in 
the couple of weeks after this. Of course anyone else is welcome to contribute 
code if they wish.

I think the most useful link would probably be one that loads the OSM node/way 
in JOSM using the remote control function in the same way that the suggested 
matches map links do. Obviously you’d have to put the address details into JOSM 
manually, but you could use the FHRS links on nearby blue dots to find these.

Thanks,
Greg

 In case it's useful for tracking, you can get the full list of tags used
 by my comparison tool at the link below. The tool downloads nodes/ways
 with those tags and any nodes/ways with an fhrs:id tag set.
