[talk-ph] Block number addressing on Philippine?

[Satoshi IIDA]

Thank you very much!! > All

Maybe some of search function for block address system would not work well
now.
But I hope it could be possible if the structure is standardized. :)

> about "underscore _"
I see, I would make an announcement to JP mappers to change
"addr:block_number".
("addr:blocknumber"(JP) is fewer used.)

> Sample of Philippine
If someone could, please write a sample and description to OSM wikipage?
(At this time, Tag table on Philippine address page is better.
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Philippines/Addressing)

In case of...
Structure tree for this case is "Barangay" -> "neighbourhood/subdivision"
-> "lot" -> "block_number" -> "housenumber"?

Regards.
