There are many houses that don't have their addresses in their building features so just wanted to add them. asked 29 Apr '22, 19:03 Ram Kapil |
It definitely isn't a privacy violation to add addresses. Adding addresses is a great way to contribute because this is an area that's generally lacking in many regions. Addresses are necessary for people to find houses, send mail, etc., and are usually meant to be publicly-visible, so there's nothing wrong with adding them in OSM. They wouldn't work very well if they were private and kept from the public eye. :) You shouldn't any personally-identifiable information, though. For example, you shouldn't tag a house with the name "Joe's house", or add a tag like answered 30 Apr '22, 00:34 alester 2

There is one exception, if the building has a visible name sign. That should/could be edit as well, is not it ?

If the building is named or there is a business that uses the proprietors name then, maybe, yes. But not simply the personal names of the inhabitants.

If you're an Android user, StreetComplete is great for addresses of the buildings are already traced.
