Thanks for creating a comprehensive sample map. For the case of mapping this type of multi-tenant building, I would be comfortable with either of the middle case tagging formats as being both easy to create, maintain, and useful for navigation.

Extending the Karlsruhe Schema concept again, the Tiger Interpolation on the right side of the street could be a single way that covers the building. According to the Karlsruhe Schema, the search starts with addr:housenumber tags for nodes and buildings, then falls back to interpolation ways for anything not specifically labeled. That would handle the case of the missing address block being assigned or not surveyed. (Yes, it's ugly because there's an imaginary line) _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
