Idea for a OpenAddressDatabase staging area for OSM
Δημοσιεύτηκε από τον/την h4ck3rm1k3 στις 6 Φεβρουάριος 2010 στα English.Dear OSM people,
I would like to suggest that we start working on a new application,
an global address database for all address data that is creative commons.
That database would be for staging into OSM. It would allow people to manage the connection to OSM , for example to find all the records by a criteria and then click on the map where they are.
This would be a great help, we could extend it to just have lists of cities, streets etc that are not there yet. Zipcodes as well. All types of tabular data that is georeferenced, but not in OSM yet.

I think what is trying to describe, is a DB of addresses, but free/open geocoding services are unable to provide co-ords.

Or even until they are able to provide, and to debug them.
To provide approximate layers for osm, for example the city would have a color based on how many addresses of a type it hase.

Ok, it is working!
Just get the lastest version from
http://github.com/h4ck3rm1k3/OAD-Open-Address-Database
git clone git@github.com:h4ck3rm1k3/OAD-Open-Address-Database.git
run like this :
perl script/oad_server.pl
Install the database :
OAD/sql/createschema.sql
See the database here :
connect to http://localhost:3000/autocrud/OAD/addresses

This project is so that we can manage the geocoding of large address databases in a standard way.
There are so many lists being imported in osm, but they have no way to manage data that is not with lat/lon.
So we need a tool to manage that transition
We should have a way to narrow down where the address would be
and allow for the user to click on a point with open layers.
We should have also some osm/open layer plugins for cataylst in the end.
