No, you're not too late...<br><br>I've been looking at addressing issues lately as well. Most of the addressing resources I've found are on the relations page of the wiki:<br><a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relations#Addressing">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relations#Addressing</a><br>
<br>The most important consideration here is that you are dealing with address *ranges* that are related to linear street segments, not address *point* which are related to individual parcels and/or buildings. This will affect how you tag them in OSM. I haven't worked through the logic yet, but I think the way forward is in some kind of a composite tag, because you have to associate the way with the right/left polarity, the from/to range. <br>

Hi everyone,<br><br>I'm looking at some donated street centerline data that has addressing data in the form of "Right/Left From Addr" and "Right/Left To Addr" on each street centerline. Is there an accepted way of applying these tags to the road ways? It doesn't really make very much sense to create and store a separate way just for the addressing information.<br>
<br>...but I might have arrived too late in the argument to say that :-)...<br>
