Importing this data into OSM is never going to work I think, but just like the AGIV data, it can be used to aid mapping. This way we can get the data into OSM to a quality level even exceeding the original data. Something I'm sure data providers are interested in.<br>

Indeed, It would be a disaster importing AGIV data as-is , by itself its very valuable but after like housenumbering my town here I can positively confirm that it's not up to date with buildings newer than like 1/2 years and that it still contains plenty of errors (buildings too little/ too much / wrong housenumbers / incomplete ones (100 vs 100/1 vs 100/a etc).<br>
<br>
But to aid osm mapping and verifying, or doublechecking data, it sure helps, but imports will never be as well done as a human being would scrutinise the data more thoroughly.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
