[Talk-ca] Advice on Addressing

[Stewart Russell]

I was pretty disappointed with the results I got from (mapquest's)
Nominatim when I tried to geocode Doors Open Toronto's data. I found about
a third of the results were clearly wrong, and haven't eyeballed the rest
on a map to see how far off they are. Toronto's got pretty good address
range entry, too.

Sure, I hadn't cleaned up the data in any way (so there was some random
noise about unit number formatting, and I don't think there was a single
instance of the One True Canadian Address format in the whole list) but the
results were disheartening.

So, no answer from me, but I'm interested in hearing how this goes.

Cheers
Stewart
