[Imports] Proposed import of San Francisco addresses

[Tyler Brown Cifu Shuster]

Hi Chas, good to see you on here.

The most important thing to note is that addresses should be applied to buildings and not as points. The "Materials (inputs, code, output)” link on the import page doesn’t work so I can’t see how they’re being applied.

Please let me know if you’d like any help with the application of house numbers to buildings in bulk as I’ve done this elsewhere.

Specifically, I am seeking to import the columns Address, Latitude, and Longitude. This is because not all San Francisco addresses are in OpenStreetMap, leading to unsuccessful matches when trying to retrieve missing addresses.

I’ve requested access to the review.
