Hi all, Following up on an action from SotM-PDX, I've posted a proposal for expanded tagging for addresses, primarily in the US (though it may have application in other countries). The intent of the tags is to 1) improve the description of US addresses, and 2) provide greater flexibility for local mappers. These tags are necessary because unlike other countries, the US has no nationwide house numbering/street naming standard. These tags provide more granularity for local mappers and hopefully, will reduce much of the ambiguity and confusion with addresses in localities with widely varying address schemes.
I invite your comments and discussion on the proposed tags. Thanks. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/House_numbers/UnitedStates -- SEJ -- twitter: @geomantic -- skype: sejohnson8 "Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen." -- Einstein
