I would just like to point out two things.
addr:unit – I get there are a lot of tall buildings where this isn’t useful in
Miami. It is useful for large footprint buildings to know what entrance to
park by. Sometimes around here (unsure of in Miami) one address will even
serve multiple
Another update on the address data:
I managed to do the address data transformation by splitting the data up
into five files. The data is now in ready to upload OSM format (except for
data errors). All duplicates of existing addresses in the OSM database

Great stuff, Leif! I will catch up with this project over the weekend and
will provide some input.
I have access to a few workstations with a bunch of memory so I can help
out with converting/processing the input data if needed. Just let me know.

Mr. Rasmussen,
Thanks for the offer! I definitely need help. :)

Hi Mango,

help with Miami. I have visited Miami several times, and have grown a
liking for it. Adding addresses there would be a real pleasure.
There appears to be two address data sets - one with "addr:unit", and one

This is my first post. Be gentle, if I fail some etiquette test. :)
I was testing the "maps.me" application and noticed address search didn't work.
It turns out it was a data problem. OSM doesn't have all the addresses for
Miami (Dade county), Florida. This surprised me because our county
