Hi,
I have placed a temporary block on the user account to make them aware
of the issues: https://www.openstreetmap.org/user_blocks/6904

Hello list,
I am possibly wrong, but there is likely an undiscussed import of
buildings happening in Antananarivo, Madagascar. Please see this
changeset that I commented and all previous and following changesets by
the same user: https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/133061376
<https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/133061376>
What makes me think those buildings are from a certain source:
- They don't align with any of the imageries available on OSM editors,
so they were likely drawn from some third party imagery (although the
source tag of the changesets says Bing).
- The attribute table is consistent and all added buildings have the
same keys addr:suburb, addr:secteur, addr:lot, addr:housenumber, and
addr:city
- The values of addr:lot=* are not valid house addresses like we use
here (As per the comment on
https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/132331988
<https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/132331988> it looks like it was
initially added to OSM as addr:ilot but then changed to addr:lot)
- Every house has addr:housenumber=* which is very rarely used here
(only in downtowns where streets are named). We use a lot-based address
system and I am not sure what these numbers on each building are
supposed to represent (even gas station canopies are numbered).
I put a comment on one of the changesets (first link) but haven't had a
response yet.
I hope I am wrong and this is not an import at all. And if this is an
import and has been discussed here but I missed it, sorry too.
Have a nice day!
