[OSM-talk] combining nodes with ways

[john whelan]

I think in some cases the node could be removed and in others copying the
information across then deleting the unwanted tags will work fine so a
mixture of both solutions will work.

At the moment I'm exploring the possibilities.  We appear to have a fair
chunk of node only addresses for residential areas but there is a
possibility that some building outlines without addresses maybe manually
imported.  Plus we have existing building outlines without addresses plus
nodes with full addresses mainly strip malls.

It’s an area with inconsistences should the building outline have the full
address?  Should each node within a building have the full address?  And
there are arguments both ways.

Thanks John
