[Talk-us] Bing Streetside

[Martijn van Exel]

Hi,

Someone asked me recently if we can use Bing's Street Side imagery for
deriving data to improve  OSM. (I did not even know it existed, it does[1],
it looks a little weird but it would definitely be usable for our purposes.)

Just for the record: the answer is no, according to the license Bing / MS
granted us[2].

Unless there is an update on this I don't know about.
