Hi, maybe you can also include the zip-code-search. I know, house numbers a more important, but zip-code-search is a nice feature, especially if you have a big city, that has streets with the same name in different zip-areas (e.g. Berlin). As far as I can remember zip-codes are saved the same way (left/right side of the street). Cheers Martin Am 06.12.2012 um 22:47 schrieb Steve Ratcliffe:
Hi
I've been looking into house numbers a little.
They work by giving a range of numbers between two nodes on a road. A node here is a routing node - where two roads meet - and not the meaning of node in OSM.
You can say if the numbers are odd, even or both and if there are no numbers down one side of a road you can say that too.
You specify numbers as being on the left or on the right when looking in the direction the road is drawn in.
So you might have on the left hand side of the road numbers are odd and go from 25 to 37 and on the right hand side they are even and go from 26 to 32. If house numbers decrease along the direction of the road, you just have a start number that is larger than the end number.
This is also clear from the polish notation for house numbers, which for the above example is:
Numbers1=0,O,25,37,E,26,32
I hope to have at least a 'hello world' example of numbering working in the next week.
