I'm still a little confused about the separate node model (which
seems to make more sense to me, in so far as it resolves better for
dealing with some large areas like farms).<br>
<br>
But where should the node go? Referring to here

it seems like the address node should be inside an area assocated
with the object it assigns an address to, but in the case of parcels
of land/buildings this wouldn't be the case<br>
<br>
i.e. my house's address node should logically be at the entrance
where you can enter it, but that's outside a building and if I don't
map land parcels is outside an area).<br>
<br>
I'm thinking just don't worry about it I guess - i.e. presumably at
some point someone will get all the zoning from the local council
and somehow upload that, at which point the address assignments
would make sense provided I stuck address points at all the
entrances?<br>

My personal opinion is that the address should be on a separate
node at the entrance to the property. This is preferred for
disability access programs.
<br>
<br>
It also takes into consideration that the address is unlikely to
change but the building or landuse may.

The block they sit on is more of a land use concern, but the

should be

tagged "house".
<br>
<br>
Is this a correct way to go about things? The goal here would be
to get

my local area updated with street numbers so generated addresses
can

provide navigation to specific locations.
<br>
<br>
Would it be correct to trace the outline of the blocks, and
label them
<br>
with the address and tag the land as "residential" use? Would
this be
<br>
likely to accomplish the overall goal (provide street numbers
for my area)?
