I'm happy to announce that we have finished our first building phase of the BANO (Base d'Adresses Nationale Ouverte) the first french adresses dataset available under an open license (ODbL).
It contains data from: - OSM - available opendata datasets - automatically collected cadastre data The first experimental dataset are available for download at http://bano.openstreetmap.fr/data/ as: - shapefiles - csv files - github projet based on the csv files (this allows to have diff and archives of all versions) on https://github.com/osm-fr/bano-data This dataset has even been published on our national opendata portal: https://www.data.gouv.fr/dataset/base-d-adresses-nationale-ouverte-bano The global database contains around 17M addresses, and the current output dataset is around 12M addresses. It would be really great if this dataset could be added to Nominatim to extend its geocoding capabilities in France where we only have around 2M addresses currently. We're not pushing the community to import these data in OSM, but to fill the holes in street names first. -- Christian Quest - OpenStreetMap France
