The house numbering system, of having it imbedded in the road, is rather difficult to get it rendered right, and doesnt match the current system of addressing roads. So the best solution is to omit those house number:first:last:left:right tags, and deal with them separartly. Yes - I think you should follow the Karlsruhe Schema, which is what everyone else is doing addresses in these days.

On Mon, 1 Jun 2009, SteveC wrote: Stupid question, you guys importing addressing too? Not yet. A few provinces have address data as part of GeoBase (but most don't). However the StatsCan data does include block face addresses for all the provinces. We've talked about importing offset address interpolation ways, someone just needs to write a script to do it. (might not happen until the base roads are imported in all the provinces, but on the todo list) Steve On 31 May 2009, at 21:38, Michael Barabanov wrote: It is nice to see more people importing the GeoBase data.

I was just working on getting the postgres things working (having tried to do various bits previously with osmosis, and having realised that it's not up to dealing with the NRN data). Those instructions are really helpful. I had gotten to importing the road segment data, and was flailing a bit :) So, thanks, and please do merge your notes. They'll prove useful to anyone else who hasn't played with this stuff before. I'm thinking about doing an import for BC's south okanagan (tiles 082E05, 082E12, possibly 082E04). cheers, Austin -- Build a man fire, he'll be warm for a day.

(fortunatly for me, it's seems that more peope are anxtious for the roads than everything else. :) You've probably heard the open source maxim: release early, release often. You might get some useful feedback on the source if you did. Food for thought -- I'm not going to push someone to release code before they feel it's ready for public consumption. Here's the 092c13 ucluet, BC area now. http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=48.9576lon=-125.5573zoom=12layers=B000FTF Wow, that really changes the look of the map. My only question is about what happens to the straight line border at the edge of the tile when you go to import the next one. Do the areas get joined up, or are there incident borders over the length of the area? If the latter is the case, do the folks who know about these things think it would be hard to de-duplicate them later (or does it even matter?) so that the (eg wooded area) can be interpreted properly? Looks good though, to my eye. cheers, Austin. ___ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
