* a first brainstorm This is a proposal for the tag address:block=#
The purpose is to tag what the house numbers are. In Canada, the address block # is posted directly on the street sign. Usually in increments of 100, so it tells the map reader which part of the road they are on. Rendering: looking similar to how the 'ref=#' tag is used on highways to show distance, this would be a smaller font as its only on a closer zoom that it should be shown. Data import: usually, the 'address:house number:first left would be it. - (perhaps a script could be written to detect the lowest number, then round to the lowest 100) (out of the 4 fields available) -- Twitter: @Acrosscanada Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/sam.vekemans _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
