Hi John,<br>
<br>
I can answer the CRAB section for you.<br>
<br>
It's not clear to me if you are asking about the integration of this
data within OSM, or if you are just asking about the source data
updates individually?<br>
<br>
CRAB is continuously updated. ( see
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://download.agiv.be/Producten/Detail?id=447&title=CRAB_Adressenlijst">https://download.agiv.be/Producten/Detail?id=447&title=CRAB_Adressenlijst</a>
)<br>
OSM is also continuously updated, every edit made is immediately
applied after upload and from there on trickles down in depending
services like the map (ex: tile generation) and geocoding (ex:
nominatim)<br>
<br>
We have a set of tools that allow us to validate OSM addresses
against crab counterparts which can be used to update OSM or
sometimes to mark errors in CRAB as OSM. The Map for Belgium is
just part of the world map , however there is a Belgian tile server
that uses a modified style with multilanguage support. For
commercial use you need to consult with those service providers if
you want to use them.<br>
<br>
The frequency of updates from CRAB to OSM totally depends on the
total effort of all mappers involved and what they are working on.
You can also do this yourself as a contributor in your areas of
interest.<br>
<br>
