[Talk-ca] Addressing in Canvec.osm

[Bégin, Daniel]

Hi Sam,
 
actually, a sample would help to understand but let say that the left and right extrapolation ways will be there, at an appropriate distance from the road, with appropriate tags to the way and to the first/last node...

	Hi Tyler,
	
	What distance did you use? I was to use 0.0001 degree (about 10 meters in Halifax) for addressing in Canvec.osm.  What would you suggest?
	
	For all, concerning adderssing tags, I am going to use...
	
	interpolation line
	- addr:interpolation
	
	First/Last node of interpolation line
	- addr:housenumber
	- addr:street
	- addr:city
	
	


So (from how i understand it)
It would actually be a simple process of manually copying over each way segment and pasting it with an offset, looking at it and adjusting the size of it... so it lines up to where we see the 1st house (from imagery) to where we see the last house/building.
or ...
As oh... the direction of the way is from lower # to higher house number? so it would be 3 separate passes through the data to get the 
1 - road name  
2 - left side (2 house numbers) - adjust .0001 degress 
3 - right side (2 house numbers) - adjust  -.0001 degrees

If thats automatic.. that'll be awesome!
...
I also cc'd feralbob for comments :)

Cheers,
Sam
 

	This is what is described as required from the wiki, except for addr:city that is optional.  I can remove it from the schema but I can't replace it with anything else because this is all I can get from Canvec (and obviously GeoBase) content.
	
	Proposal?

	Here's a small area I have applied the converted StatCan NRN address data to.  In my first attempt I definitely put the address interpolation ways FAR too close to the streets; I just fixed this so it may or may not be visible.
