Tom Chance's Diary

Some more relations in Peckham

Posted by Tom Chance on 8 August 2009 in English.

I've added in half of the P13 bus route and a load more house/street numbers. Adding in all the nodes, ways, tags and relations for house numbers is a bit laborious so I've been pretty slow adding these in.

When namefinder supports the numbering that will probably motivate me to do it a bit more quickly. Particularly for long roads, being able to find precisely the right place through search is very handy!

The CloudMade Geocoding already uses the house numbers. Compare http://geocoding.cloudmade.com/2def99212e655fa8bc44a7175b7c95f5/geocoding/find/3,Craigour%20Avenue,Edinburgh,UK.html and http://geocoding.cloudmade.com/2def99212e655fa8bc44a7175b7c95f5/geocoding/find/Craigour%20Avenue,Edinburgh,UK.html
At the moment you do need that comma between the house number and the street name.
