Hi Roman , - The source addresses uses abbreviations (RD, ST,etc) are you expanding them? - The source addresses are capitalized, are you fixing that? - How are you dealing with multiple addresses per building - How are you dealing with multiple buildings per address. - Unless you are working full time on this two weeks seems like not enough time, it is 380,000 addresses. - The source data contains the building heights, you might want to import that in too. - I would like to see a sample osm/osc files.
