if there's a whole building or area with one housenumber you can put the
feature inside and it can inherit the address from the area, it seems like a
good way to map, but in many cases this is not possible. In Italy in general,
every entrance and even some potential entrances get their own number. Features
on the ground floor can easily be accessible by several numbers (store fronts
tend to get a number for each window), even
on different streets (if they're on a street corner). But often the shops only
use some of these numbers (often their main entrance). It makes sense to add
address information to those features (the address they use) rather or in
addition to adding the address to the entrance (alternatively we could
associate the entrance with a relation to the feature, but this seems less
stable and more complicated for less experienced mappers).
This practice isn't reflected by the current documentation of Addresses:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Addresses
I would like to add it, but I'm unsure if this is Italy-specific or if we could
recommend to map like this in general.
What is your opinion?
Cheers,
Martin
