Drawing a long straight line from the first to last end points would probably work fine for address interpolation type applications (if the application projects the point onto the road) but it you wouldn't want the renderer to draw that line, for a curved road it would look really bad. > And for the off-set, ill leave that for the expert. ... since the > canvec2osm (using simple java) script is not really 'automatated'. > .the geobase2osm (using python) script is. If we want to use a Karlsruhe scheme then this will need a script similar to what the ump2osm is doing, I think we are best waiting till someone can do that with offsets and relations to the road (the complexity of the script will probably be comparable to the ump2osm script). If we want to attach the tags directly to the road nodes themselves then you would need a script that get add these tags to existing nodes (doable, but neither canvec2osm or geobase2osm alter existing nodes/ways) > > So I think best option is still the same, keep the streetnames.osm > files in the canvec2osm script (but as a reference, & not to be > imported), and let the geobase2osm script deal with it..
