[Talk-us] Importing addresses from TIGER

[Saikrishna Arcot]

Hi all,

I believe TIGER has some data on addresses; more specifically, it has
address ranges for each block (roughly). Currently, the US has limited
address info in OSM. Some cities have many businesses and POIs with
address data, so the data in the region might be comparable with other
mapping services. Is it possible to have a bot/script that matches up
TIGER roads with OSM roads and then add in address ranges? That way,
there is at least /some/ info about addresses in OSM.
