I was looking at the OSM Inspector, and happened to notice a large red bit over Sittingbourne [1], on closer inspection, there seems to loads of good data for Sittingbourne in OSM. However in my opinion, its not presented (tagged, ...) in the best way.
The three issues that I have seen are: - landuse=residential building=yes tags on the buildings - in most cases this should just be building=house - building footprints are too big and often cover many houses - just need spiting up, one house, one building way - addr data separate from the building outlines - merge data per [3] So, if anyone is having problems finding places to map... Also, if anyone disagrees with the above assessment, please shout. I have already done a bit of improvement here [2]. 1: http://tools.geofabrik.de/osmi/?view=addresses&lon=0.73599&lat=51.34400&zoom=14&overlays=buildings,buildings_with_addresses,postal_code,nodes_with_addresses_defined,nodes_with_addresses_interpolated,no_addr_street,street_not_found,interpolation,interpolation_errors,connection_lines,nearest_points,nearest_roads 2: http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=51.335704&lon=0.73662&zoom=18&layers=M 3: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/One_feature,_one_OSM_element
