I started adding housenumbers at the last week of March 2009. At that time, it was limited to my neighborhood. However, I added "a few more" housenumbers in some nearby residential areas (including a very open subdivision) over the past 2+ months.
I do not know which government entity/developer assigns housenumbers here before, but starting in the early 2000's, the barangays are assigning the housenumbers (I got the housenumber info from roaming some streets). In some barangays, the "Block X Lot Y" schema was dropped in favor of the housenumbers. The problem is that on certain streets, you may see the same housenumbers assigned in different areas (though the certain areas are quite close to each other). The solution is that you create two (or more) relations, assign it to the apropriate housenumber ways/nodes and place notes. See http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/125011 and http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/relation/141864 as examples. The only problem for me adding housenumbers is that they are either obscured (one housenumber was covered with tape since the owner didn't like the assigned housenumber and prefered his/her old housenumber), hidden from public view, or the poor mapper roaming the streets may be suspected as a thief, just because he or she is looking at housenumber plates. Regardless of such fears and frustrations, I'm still pursuing the adoption of the Karlsruhe Schema within its city borders. As of now, it has "covered" at least four out of 80 Barangays. --- On Fri, 5/22/09, maning sambale <emmanuel.samb...@gmail.com> wrote: From: maning sambale <emmanuel.samb...@gmail.com> Subject: [talk-ph] san pablo house numbers To: "osm-ph" <talk-ph@openstreetmap.org> Date: Friday, May 22, 2009, 7:55 PM and ianlopez started adding house numbers in San Pablo! http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=14.07678&lon=121.32241&zoom=17&layers=B000FTF -- cheers, maning ------------------------------------------------------ "Freedom is still the most radical idea of all" -N.Branden wiki: http://esambale.wikispaces.com/ blog: http://epsg4253.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ talk-ph mailing list talk-ph@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ph
