You're right, they're not geographically right on top of each other. But, in OSM we have these "relation" data primitives to tie different thing together. In this case, we use relations to tie addresses and roads together. I think this is in case of things like the road getting moved. The address nodes at least don't become orphans. -- Dave _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
