terrible site

and wrong in places

House tracing is hard work

looks good I have been adding house numbers too, but not sold on the use of addr:housenumber for shops and garages ect, it really should have been addr:number or addr:pointnumber , but using addr:housenumber for now :)

Bridleways

yeah I am adding the horse=yes/no tag to my edits past and present :)

Lamp posts (tagging question)

I now use lit=yes lit=no on all road/track paths and have added the tag to roads ect I have done before I started to tag lit. It could be used to show a map with lit streets and paths.

Routable Commons

yeah map path in park and join that to the road.and yeah put the boundaries as near to their right locations as you can.

Finishing up Stavanger, Norway

I am holding coatbridge at 99% complete, until I get the the rest of the addresses added everything else is there :) Stravanger looks great, good job

How I manage to do it

I have missed a few street/place/road/lane/way on the first survey, second time I nail it, and yeah address data is better second time too if you print out osm for the area.

Creative Commons makes it possible

thats good fun
