Improve parsing and handling of buildings with house numbers #3

Open jejking opened 10 years ago

jejking commented 10 years ago

The code that captures buildings and house numbers misses quite a few points. It captures only buildings with "building=" tags. Many buildings are labelled "addr:housenumber" but not as "building=".

We should filter on add:housenumber - and then filter out some those osm components that can be identifed as NOT being a building (e.g postboxes...).

Suggest that arbitrary buildings that are not "points of interest" should be handled separately as the work needed on them is different.

Don't forget the possibility of these being modelled with the "associatedStreet" relationship type: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relation:associatedStreet
