Stats Canada is looking at using OSM as a source of data. They are particularly interested in buildings and associated attributes in Ottawa and Gatineau.
When I look at Ottawa there are a number of shopping malls, every store has the same address and postcode except they might have a different unit number. So we often have a building outline with nodes inside representing the stores. Some stores have been mapped as a node and tagged with an address including a postcode, some buildings have been tagged with an address and postcode some do not. Some buildings outlines have a node inside that just has the address and nothing else. Stats can probably associate the building outlines with an internal node containing the address but is there a simple way to either copy the address information or merge the node into the building way carrying the address information with it? Thanks John
