Should be easy enough to convert OSM data to shapefiles, either with GIS tools or through custom scripts. I'm in the middle of a move, but if I can find some time I'll give it some thought. Glenn, you say there is no 1:1 map between OSM and CRAB. I'm not familiar with the CRAB data, so could you share where the problem is, for instance with using house numbers as Pieter suggests? Maybe working on this project could lead to an improvement of the synchronization between CRAB and OSM data? Cheers, Jw
