Hello,
Bing imagery is by far the most used and likely the default in editors
such as iD.
Here is a quick comparison [1] of why we need to stop using Bing for
adding/aligning data in OpenStreetMap within Greater Accra Region for
the moment.
If you are planning organised mapping activities in Accra or outside,
first thing to look at is to conduct some extensive comparison of
publicly available imagery,
GPS traces, etc before deciding on which to use so that data added to
OpenStreetMap is useful.
