I have been with OSM since 2007 and i have heard estimates for years and most of them have been proven wrong. My guess is that address completion in Germany at least will not be far away - I am working hard on that and i am now at >10k addresses. Looking at the larger Citys (>100K) those are very good at address coverage already today. Whereby "completion" means "Google level" - Even Google does not have ALL addresses for Germany. My rough estimate is that they are at about 90%. The rest is beeing interpolated. And lane assist stuff is easy to add - Enable your JOSM style for lanes and go for it. I live between 2 citys (45k and 90k) and both of them are basically done with lane assist stuff. All bigger junctions beeing complicated are done. One can easily use this with Mapfactor Navigator which shows turn:lanes e.g. lane assist and destination:lanes Flo -- Florian Lohoff f...@zz.de
