<html><head></head><body>You will probably need to have the camera in video mode, and subsequently locate which frames give you the best view of the house number. Trying to both watch where you are going, and also pick the best location for a single shot, would be about as risky as trying to send text messages while pedaling. Also, you probably need to have the camera mounted on a pole so that it can see over parked vehicles and pedestrians.<br>

Not that it couldn't be done, but the technical effort<br /> required to do so is significant (aka in the direction of googles<br /> streetview tricycle) and you still end up with having to post process,<br /> which again takes more time than doing it properly (at 1st glance<br /> slower) in the fist place.<br /><br /> Simon<br /><br /><br /> Am 20.08.2014 13:52, schrieb Ilpo Järvinen:<br /><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 1ex 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid #8ae234; padding-left: 1ex;"> On Wed, 20 Aug 2014, Simon Poole wrote:<br /><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 1ex 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid #fcaf3e; padding-left: 1ex;"> Am 20.08.2014 12:11, schrieb Ilpo
Järvinen:<br /> ... lots of stuff from past experiences ...<br /><br /> There is no reason not to immediately enter the address data, preferably<br /> as entrance nodes if the building outlines exist, if they don't, placing<br /> an address node at an appropriate place is far easier if you are<br /> actually standing/walking past the building in question.<br /><br /> All the address surveying I've done in the last couple of months has<br /> time wise been dominated by the time it takes to walk from building to<br /> building.<br /></blockquote><br /> Nice, but how would you do positioning of such nodes while cycling past<br /> the buildings? :-)<br /><br /> I could make only trivial notes (to a draft SMS to be exact but that<br /> won't work with too fancy phones with touch keyboards though ;-)) that<br /> heavily depended near-term memory because the time available to mark<br /> individual address (or entrance) is very limited. Also, almost no time is<br /> "wasted" while moving
from address to another. I was rather happy to<br /> have occassionally a short break in sequence to catch up/relax (or could<br /> use even higher speed, i.e., collect more addresses per time unit).<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><hr /><br /> Tagging mailing list<br /> Tagging@openstreetmap.org<br /> <a href="https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging">https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging</a></blockquote><br /><br /><br /><hr /><br /> Tagging mailing list<br /> Tagging@openstreetmap.org<br /> <a href="https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging">https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging</a></blockquote><br /><br /><br /></blockquote></pre></blockquote></div><br>
