Well, asking for places that you are familiar with is a bit of a stretch for me, but if you need to see some mapping in the UK how about this: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=52.554681&lon=-1.822458&zoom=18&layers=M > Are there plans to import addresses in bulk, or is it expected that these > will be inputted by hand? It's something we've been mapping for quite some time now, by hand, in various countries around the world, and I would expect that to continue. I'd echo the other statements about getting some experience by mapping in OSM, before worrying about bulk imports or writing your own routing engine from scratch.
