Is even or odd bound to a specific side of the road? I ask because i noticed that a Garmin Nuevi announces the side of the road the target should be when you reach it. The TomTom device i have does not. When even/odd are not bound to a specific side of the road and you want announcements like that you again mostly need to tag all individual addresses. > Thus, for many roads near me, interpolation is not only usable, it's > technically correct. > > Not that numbering individual houses is wrong, either. Right - it might be a bit redundant - but who cares in a project which exports 100G+ XML files ;) Flo -- Florian Lohoff [email protected] +49-171-2280134 Those who would give up a little freedom to get a little security shall soon have neither - Benjamin Franklin
