[OSM-talk-be] Addresses in Belgium

[Jo]

Hi Chris,

The easiest way is to simply add addr:housenumber nodes. It's hard to do
anything wrong with that. For good measure add addr:street as well. On
Android you can use the latest version of Vespucci. It works quite well,
but it's not a lot of use without an internet connection (3G or WLAN).

One step further is to add addr:interpolation vectors. Add the numbers on
the streetcorners and the special cases like 5A (also add 5 and 6 in that
case) and a way in between.

I prefer to add addr:housenumber in 'the field' and do 'postprocessing'
afterwards. Drawing the buildings and adding them to associatedStreet
relations, but the most important part are those addr:housenumber nodes.
The rest can be done later, but that's the 'raw' data.

Jo
