Can you identify the location of the Addr for the "From/To"? If so it would be easy to calculate interpolation-ways right and left of the streets using the Karlsruhe Schema. > Is there an accepted way of applying these tags to the > road ways? No, only in applying it to houses next to the street and special ways connecting next to the street for interpolating whole streets of house-numbers at once. > It doesn't really make very much sense to create and store a > separate way just for the addressing information. I disagree here because of the hundrets of special cases that absolutely must be handled to be correct that come from the fact that houses are not usually build in the middle of a road. > ...but I might have arrived too late in the argument to say that :-)... Yes, you are. ;) PS: I`m not reading the talk-US but as you crossposted there, so do I. Please let me know of yet another addressing-schema comes that is in actual usage to make sure my address-search does work on all the planet.
