If I followed it correctly, also in the Netherlands all addresses are
mapped on nodes, which they lined up diagonally inside the building
contours, for buildings with more than 1 address.

Since they have all the data out in the open, they could import it, of
course, which means they now have a complete situation which is consistent
to boot.
