Why collect addresses?
Street address data is essential infrastructure. Street names, house numbers and zip codes, when combined with geographic coordinates, are the hub that connects digital to physical places. Precisely because of their connecting role, free and open addresses are rocket fuel for civic and commercial innovation.
