[Talk-it] Should StreetComplete stop adding addresses in Italy?

2018-07-12 Thread Tobias Zwick
Hey there

Since early 2017 till now, users of my app StreetComplete have been
adding house numbers to buildings.
Should I disable this functionality for Italy?

For buildings of certain types, such as "apartments" or "house"s etc.
(but not "yes"), which do neither have an address tagged, nor have any
node on or in their outline with an address tagged, nor are in any area
that has an address tagged, the app shows a pin on the map, like this:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/westnordost/StreetComplete/master/fastlane/metadata/android/en/images/phoneScreenshots/screenshot8.png

This pin is shown to every user of the app, until it is solved. To solve
it, the user taps on the pin and can input the housenumber for the
building in the form that pops up then. The user can also answer that
the building has no housenumber, in which case the app tags noaddress=yes.

Cheers
Tobias

Hi Tobias and thanks for posting this question.
I think that you are referring to the Italian guideline that specifically
forbids to put "house numbers" on building polygons.
This is because in Italy the "house numbers" are actually access
identifiers unlike in other countries where they identify the building
itself.
Given that I think that the answer to your question should be "yes" .

In any case I would wait further contributions to this thread since the
above approach, even if accepted by the Italian community, was subject to
some criticism.

Ciao

I you could invite people to add addresses to entrances and gates and 
barrier=entrance (where applying), it would be great. 

For buildings I would say it is ok as long as the address applies to the whole 
polygon (usually means buildings with only one access from the public land).

For example I know an office in an apartment building, it is inside a garden. 
The access road to the garage has number 10, the gate which leads  to the 
footway to the building has 8, another gate which leads to the garden has 6. 
The office does not use the main entrance of the building (the access is 
through the garden) but it has the same house number and a postbox together 
with the apartment. For me it would be ok to have the 8 tagged as addr 
housenumber on the building (because it is a property of all tenants), as well 
as at the gate (because it applies to this point).
But I guess this is a situation more unusual than not, at least for commercial 
use.

Ciao, Martin
