The Abu Dhabi perhaps shows a better understanding of the problems of managing addresses than the w3w project? But I've not looked to see if OSM is picking up on that initiative yet. Certainly since it is in effect a local postcode system it would be more appropriate to be using with OSM data ... especially since it is adding the missing names to many of the new roads in the area as well as giving a smartcode tag which can be converted to a rough geo location. It's not clear from the citymetric article if the smartcode goes down to individual postal addresses, or just the building? -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
