Once house numbers get too dense (worst<br /> case: Montreal, where each apartment in a duplex or triplex will<br /> have it's own house number) it starts getting tricky assigning the<br /> number to the correct building. And yeah, Mapillary imagery can<br /> definitely be useful for address data.<br /> <br /> <br /> Keypad mapper is wonderful because you are not as conspicuous<br /> when using<br /> pen and paper. I've tried using ranges were I drop the leading two<br /> digits while entering five digit numbers. There's a bunch of post<br /> processing when you actually enter the data. With any technique<br /> that I<br /> use, I always feel like Billy

Commercial buildings can be the worst case<br /> to try<br /> and find the number.<br /> <br /> <a href="http://familycircus.com/comics/april-5-2015">http://familycircus.com/comics/april-5-2015</a>/<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /><hr /><br /> <br /> Talk-us mailing list<br /> Talk-us@openstreetmap.org<br /> <a href="https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us">https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us</a><br /> <br /> <br /><hr /><br /> <br /> Talk-us mailing list<br /> Talk-us@openstreetmap.org<br /> <a href="https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us">https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us</a><br /> <br /> <br /> -- <br /> John F.
