canada open data. For the labour force or unemployment survey they
record the house number of every house in Canada except those locations
such as reservations that are not included in the labour force survey. I
seem to recall this being done for Metrolinx by one of their employees
some years ago.<br>

<div dir="auto"><div dir="auto">I would like to see all of the street
addresses in Nanaimo in OpenStreetMap. However, it is unfeasible for me
to gather this address data myself in a ground survey for two reasons:
Nanaimo is very sprawled, and I live too far away in Courtenay. So if I
am to be able to do this, I need to find a third-party database that is
as up-to-date as possible, and more crucially, is licence-compatible
with OSM. I would then proceed to add this data manually, starting with
determining using the Overpass API which street addresses in Nanaimo
are already in OSM, so I do not duplicate them. Do you have any ideas
for how I might be able to proceed with this?</div><div dir="auto"><br></div>-
