(Of course those tags *can* Have the above details on the nodes makes the data potentially inconsistent because given 2 nodes: node1: addr:street = Starigradska node2: addr:street = SomethingElse way: addr:interpolation = all There is no way to know what street address the interpolated points have. And enough other people are already doing this that assuming that you can ignore tags on the way just doesn't work. Your advise also contradicts the definition on wiki. Putting the tags on the way prevents inconsistency and duplication. >> In general creating a polygon / relation for anything above street >> level is probably more useful than adding it to individual nodes (or >> even ways) - so just draw a rough polygon for the city of Osijek and >> tag that instead. > No. Creating polygons and relations willy nilly makes this harder to use. > Again, it means there are several places where the software has to look > for the data and several places where people have to look for the data. I disagree with your statement but you have also miss-interpreted what I said. I mean use a polygon / relation to create a polygon for the place (in this case Osijek). The street/house is then known to be within the town because it is inside the town polygon. -- Brian _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
