[Talk-ca] Importing buildings in Canada

Sounds good to me. Can we try it as if I don't have the data? I might then be able to clearly document the procedure in the wiki.

The task is setup in task manager, it was just more convenient serving data via the service. I can publish the task and invite those that have enough experience (they would need the orthoganalized data though) Which I could provide over slack(osm-ca.slack.com<http://osm-ca.slack.com>)

Hi James,
That is too bad, but there is no rush at this stage because we are simply refining the import procedure. In the meantime, I propose to act as “Task manager”. I can provide some tiles (task frame and orthogonalized buildings’ footprint) to those who wish to try the import procedure.
I should start importing today with a first tile. If changes/additional information are needed to adjust the procedure, I suggest we discuss it on the import Talk page [1]

Ok so I have some bad news, the data.osmcanada.ca<http://data.osmcanada.ca> server that was being hosted by a friend on AWS was shutdown and wiped. I will need to get time to get things setup on another server to host the microinstance: https://github.com/osmottawa/micro-data-service
