The only time I've mixed the two has been with stripmall-style buildings where there are a series of businesses in the same building (or, if you like, a series of adjacent buildings with uniform storefronts). Rather than terrace the buildings[0], I often just trace the outline of the whole set, mark it as building=yes, and add an unconnected address interpolation line, like so: http://osm.org/go/ZcIoRxFhk-- I'm not sure if that's the answer you were looking for, but it's the best I've come up with for relating address interpolation and polygonal buildings. [0] And the JOSM terracing plugin doesn't always work for this sort of thing. Often, the store fronts will be uniform, but the backs will extend different distances from the fronts. The terracer gets really unhappy with things like that. -- ...computer contrarian of the first order... / http://aperiodic.net/phil/ PGP: 026A27F2 print: D200 5BDB FC4B B24A 9248 9F7A 4322 2D22 026A 27F2 --- -- The problem with using C++ ... is that there's already a strong tendency in the language to require you to know everything before you can do anything. -- Larry Wall ---- --- -- _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
