<div dir="auto">Hey everyone,
<div dir="auto"><br></div>
<div dir="auto">I noticed that street number information is quite sparse around where I live in Sydney, then saw it’s because the GNAF license is incompatible with OSM (as tracked by @aharvey here: <a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Australian_data_catalogue" target="_blank">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Australian_data_catalogue</a>).</div>
<div dir="auto"><br></div>
<div dir="auto">This is pretty unfortunate as it means address search and routing tools can only point you to the street, but not the individual property. (Noticed when trying to geocode my own address!)</div>
<div dir="auto"><br></div>
<div dir="auto">Does anyone know of other techniques for getting address information at scale? e.g. does Mapillary try to detect street numbers from street-level imagery?</div>
<div dir="auto"><br></div>
<div dir="auto">Interestingly Mapbox does have street numbers where I live, I wonder where they are getting that information.</div>
<div dir="auto"><br></div>
<div dir="auto">Thanks,</div>
