Hi Wanmil Given that this excellent new address tool seems to be based on the min max values of housenumbers , I wonder how difficult is to use house numbers in addr:interpolation ? As a bonus you are given the odd & even values. Or is it something you have on your todo list? r Nick -- View this message in context: http://gis.19327.n5.nabble.com/addr-interpolation-tp5750158.html Sent from the Mkgmap Development mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Hi Nick, at first I would like to have some examples that evaluating addr:interpolation improves the housenumber search. As far as I know the usual addr:interpolation looks like: rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr n1--------------------n2 where r = road n1: addr:housenumber=12; addr:street=Main Street n2: addr:housenumber=24; addr:street=Main Street line: addr:interpolation=even In this case addr:interpolation is an additional information only if the road has a crossroads between n1 and n2. So something like this: r rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr n1--------------------n2 In this case it would be possible to estimate the interpolated numbers of the road segment: r rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr n1-------x y---------n2 Do you think this helps? Can you give some examples where it helps? WanMil

Hi WanMil The following links have addr:interpolation http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/38186936 http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/way/38143561 There is no hurry with this as I realise the current tool generates some interesting if not inexplicable results, at least on mapsourse. I have a feeling that if a road X has been split, say into 2 chunks,a Mapsource search focuses on the last chunk, as if it can't correctly identify the complete road.ie In the same area, you will find Langaton Lane which has been split because half of it is a bus route. If I enter a street number 1 it points to the lowest of the last chunk, not the lowest of the street. Exeter is festooned with addresses number entries making it easier to evaluate the current tool.
