[OSM-talk] Duplicate house numbers

[Jóhannes Birgir Jensson]

This is an import as we can see on the history of one of the nodes: 
http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/3696941268/history

Notice in some cases the same housenumbers are valid! Based on the 
aerial images this is not the case here as the cadaster import seems to 
be for the building footprint, the lot footprint and boundary(?) or 
maybe this was originally planned as 3 different lots. This looks like a 
manual cleanup operation.

A real world example of buildings having the same number because someone 
somewhere said it was ok: Dalvegur 18 (two different buildings with 
different businesses)
