Hi Denis - how are you getting address points from Bing imagery?

Comment from DenisCarriere
@scruss The address points are from the City of Ottawa open Data portal, they have already been imported by another user.

And building footprints are from the StatsCan building project.
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Canada#Crowdsourcing_buildings_with_Statistics_CanadaThe Bing source was used to make sure to align any buildings and verify if the points & buildings matched.
The source is added to the building tags:

Comment from scruss
Hi Denis - the StatsCan import has no documentation, data links or community import buy-in. So it can't yet be proceeding, can it?
Also, there are address nodes with source=bing, not just buildings.
You must use a dedicated account to import data, too.

Comment from DenisCarriere
Well I wasn't importing data, I was cleaning the existing data and merging address points to buildings.
Some of the buildings were drawn via Bing.
Some of the address nodes with source=bing were added by other users, I simply merged them into the buildings.
The project is being driven by the local OSM Ottawa group and many emails have been passed to the OSM Canada mailing list, sorry if you weren't following it.

I am following it, closely. There are no docs, no process and no discussion.
