Hi Andrew,
Great interaction and transparency!

I have not read the code, will have a look but not sure how much I will 
understand. Therefore I'm asking how do you determine the location of the POI 
to be added?

In the NSW the address data was part of an area of the plot of land the address 
is for. So as part of the import process the area was converted to a node 
location.
Long driveways or other thin parts of the plot resulted in the node often being 
outside of the actual area.

Also most plot of lands have the house towards one end and garden in the other. 
This results in the node outside of the building.

I assume that you do not intend to manually correct node locations such that 
they are on top of an unit.
