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

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.

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 ___ Talk-it mailing list Talk-it@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-it
