Dave@lemmy.nz 1 week agoWhen I put in an address it directs me straight to the right building. Sometimes I have to go on a place’s website to find that address but most of the time I can search by name.
Does your area need better Open Street Map data? Might need to contribute 🙂

When going to a residential street address, it usually doesn’t know where exactly on the street that address is.

Interesting! I know if you look back at changes in my country you can see where someone has done a massive automated load of buildings (addresses as well as the actual shape of buildings) from data published by a government department, so I guess I’m quite privileged to have such good data. I’ve corrected some but it’s been at the level of it tagging a garage instead of the house, it’s always close to correct. The main issue I have is searching up a business by name, they are only in there 2/3 of the time, but I go and add them if they aren’t.
I feel very lucky!
