<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Hi Thorsten,<br><br>I agree that the data doesn't look that bad.<br>My problem is this:<br>1) We have to interpret the info in addr:interpolation ways because<br>it helps to find the right intervals in many cases,<br>for example it normally gives a clear hint to which part of a road <br>a pair of houses belongs when muultiple roads form a # shape.<br>See <a href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/427691367" target="_blank">http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/427691367</a><br>which is closer to a different road. <br>2) On the other hand, a lot of the addr:interpolation<br>ways in Canada are wrong, e.g.<br><a href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/75809612" target="_blank">http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/75809612</a><br>crosses the road.<br>If mkgmap only ignores this wrong addr:interpolation<br>way it will still use the obviously wrong odd house number<br>3367 for the road side that has even numbers.<br>So, mkgmap should also ignore that number.<br>As it is sometimes difficult to decide which of the two numbers is<br>wrong, I decided that it is okay to ignore both.<br><br>I guess I have to find more detailed rules :-(<br><br>Gerd<br><br><br><div>> Date: Tue, 24 Mar 2015 08:35:22 +0100<br>> From: kukuk@suse.de<br>> To: mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk<br>> Subject: Re: [mkgmap-dev] addr:interpolation ways not along road<br>> <br>> <br>> Hi,<br>> <br>> On Mon, Mar 23, GerdP wrote:<br>> <br>> > Hi all,<br>> > <br>> > I wonder if mkgmap should treat this a valid addr:interpolation way:<br>> > http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/32922365<br>> > <br>> > The wiki says:<br>> > "How to interpolate the house numbers belonging to the way along the<br>> > respective street."<br>> > <br>> > but this way connects house numbers which are up to 170 m away from the road<br>> > named Bergweg, so I think it is not "along" the respective street.<br>> <br>> The addr:interpolation way is valid in the regard that it matches reality.<br>> If this is good tagging is another question.<br>> <br>> And if the street really stops that early: I don't know, the<br>> pictures of bing and google are not good enough for this.<br>> <br>> But I know that this will not really help you. <br>> <br>> Thorsten<br>> <br>> -- <br>> Thorsten Kukuk, Senior Architect SLES & Common Code Base<br>> SUSE LINUX GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany<br>> GF: Felix Imendörffer, Jane Smithard, Jennifer Guild, Dilip Upmanyu, Graham Norton, HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg)<br>> _______________________________________________<br>> mkgmap-dev mailing list<br>> mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk<br>> http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/mkgmap-dev<br></div> </div></body>
