Try to use the validator in JOSM to find nodes which have exactly the same
position.

> I just want to say that the import of addresses in Norway has been

>
> There are also some screenshots there showing the location of all
> addresses.
>
> In my opinion, it went very well.
>
> There are two remaining things that will have to be sorted out in the
> maintenance phase:
>  - Certain address nodes where there are multiple letters following
> the house number are placed at exactly the same point. They were
> imported anyway. A plan is to make a script or something that finds
> these nodes so that we can work on assigning them to the location of
> the correct door of the buildings. Maybe someone knows about such a
> script/web service already that can give us this info?
>  - There are still many missing roads according to the address view of
> OSM inspector. Now as we have the addresses in OSM, it's much easier
> to spot the missing roads.
>
> These are long-term tasks to complete, and we are happy to now have
> addresses available in all applications using OSM data. Every now and
> then (every 3 months or so), "Kartverket" will release updates to the
> address node data set and then the plan is to use
> http://osm.beebeetle.com/addrnodeimportstatus.php to keep track of the
> differences and then OSM up to date (by manually doing the changes).
>
> Let me know if you see any other significant issues.
