8.2.9 Streetnames and Housenumbers
House numbers are the numbering system of parcels and plots for the public. Together with street names they form a generally understood address systems in most countries of the world.
Following process creates house number and street address data in LUPMIS. These can always be referenced to the UPM system.
1. Digitize all parcels of the Local Plan with all planning zones (in the 'Style' field of the DRA file).
2. Assign UPN to the parcels of the Local Plan automatically with the ' UPN Assignment' Drawing Tool. This will create all UPN in the 'Unique ID' field of the DRA file.
3. Assign house numbers for all parcels manually in Map Maker's live layer to the 'Display label' field.
Your Local Plan DRA file is then complete.
You continue to create a reference file between UPN and street name / house numbers, which you will need for many purposes:
4. Copy this DRA file to a temporary file for street names in the Tools folder by using the 'Street names' Tool step 4. Alternatively, you can copy the DRA file manually and name it '...._streetnames_parcels.dra' (for example 'Bogoso_streetnames_parcels.dra' in folder '\LUPMIS\Prestea\Prestea SL\Tools'.
5. Assign street names to all parcels in this temporary file in Map Maker's live layer to the 'Display label' field. You can use the Select tool, then Edit > Show Selection Manager > Actions > IDs and labels > Amend labels and IDs > Set all display labels to ... > Enter street name > OK
6. Run step 6 of the 'Street names' Tool. This will create a reference file (CSV) '..._streetnames_UPN.csv', which can be opened in Excel or used in the Revenue Tools for checking ('UPN/street names in DB').
All these steps are also explained and guided in LUPMIS Drawing Tools 'Street Names':
