[OSM-talk-be] How do I tag these addresses?

[Jo]

That's the difference between 'city folk' and people who live amongst
villas :-) Just kidding. Please don't stop sending photos of bus stops now.

We're on a roll. Anyway, for houses in a row, the technique works fine, for
freestanding houses, I'd also use Marc's technique. I was simply creating a
few as an example and taking note of every single action I was performing.

A few months ago I even created a little 'movie', a screencast. Oh, I was
so proud I put these 2 plugins together and made them do my bidding :-)
But Youtube didn't like the format for some reason. I should be able to
find it, somewhere on my hard drive, or in my gmail sent messages, if there
is interest though.

Adding the associatedStreet plugin to the technique helps especially, when
there are already (irregularly numbered) nodes with housenumbers on an
addr:interpolation way.

Or when some of those nodes already have more tags, like POIs, shops,
amenities, etc.

Cheers,

Jo
