I'm the developer of the plug-ins we use for the Dutch BAG import. These
plug-ins are still in development and currently only available to a
selected group of test users. With this group of 8 people, we are
testing and improving the plug-ins. On the 8th of march, we'll give a
workshop and introduce the plug-in to a larger group of interested
people.
This is the main reason that the plug-in is not yet in the JOSM's
plug-in list.
The reason that we remove the 3dshapes building outlines in most cases
instead of replacing the geometries, is that in most cases there is no 1
on 1 match between 3dshapes buildings and BAG buildings.
The 3dshapes 'buildings' are in most cases building blocks which will be
replaced by a group of bag buildings. For buildings that can be replaced
1 on 1 and that do have any history, we do use the replace geometry
option.
Here is a link for the buildings WMS you can use in Josm:

I'm not aware of any WMS layer containing address data. This makes sense
as a WMS layer can only show one address at a certain point, hiding all
other addresses at the same point.
You can use the bagviewer to lookup individual addresses:

It's a bit inconvenient that plugins that are needed, don't show up in
JOSM's plugin list. So I was stuck right away.
That didn't stop me from reading on. What struck me as odd, is that
the instructions say to remove the building outlines that came from
3dshapes. I know they're not worth all that much, but it seems to me
the history ought to be preserved by using replace geometry on them.
I finally created a Polyglot_Import account to help out with the
Uganda borders. Now it seems I would have to create another
Polyglot_BAG account, if I choose to take the many hurdles. I decided
to let the goblet pass...
(I know this requirement doesn't come from you, but you could make it
easier for an occasional importer like myself by providing the
necessary plugins in JOSM itself)
I want to do a street here and there, not whole villages and city
parts. The information I'm missing at the moment are the house
numbers. In Flanders we have a WMS layer we can consult to add them
manually. Is there something like that in the Netherlands?
Cheers,
Jo

Hi all
last November the Dutch addresses and buildings import has
been discussed on this list. Since then alpha testing has been
done in December by two people and after a new years meeting
seven members of the Dutch OpenStreetMap community are
currently beta testing a JOSM plugin which is performing the
preprocessing (conversion of the original BAG database into
the agreed tagging, simplifying building outlines and
eliminating about 99% of the crossing buildings errors) and
which is capable of loading data into JOSM by selecting a
polygon. Early March we hope to roll it out and get as much as
possible local knowledge in for importing, in order to
increase the number of active mappers in The Netherlands.
Some days ago Paul checked a testimport and stumbled across
the JOSM validator warning 'Nodes at same position'. An
example can be seen
here:
http://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=52.01284mlon=4.33806#map=19/52.01284/4.33806
The Vermeertoren (named after the famous Dutch painter) is a
typical Dutch high rise building of 23 floors, combining an
underground parking garage, a health care center, a child care
center (kindergarten), social and luxury housing. That means a
lot of addresses in one building. The address data as
available in the official database (the BAG) combines several
different addresses into a single LAT/LON coordinate. The WIKI
on multiple addresses
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Addresses is not very clear
on this situation:
Buildings with multiple house numbers
Ambox warning pn.svg There is currently no consensus on this.
This matter has not been addressed in the November proposal,
since I was not aware of it at the time. But given the WIKI we
later decided that our import method would be okay. Biggest
problems are that JOSM displays a warning (Nodes at same
position) and that the display of addresses on Mapnik is not
very nice. Perhaps the proposal as being made on this
page
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_Features/Multiple_addresses would
give a better solution. Then
