How many of your team are local to LA, and how are you cooperating with the OSM community in LA? What is your estimate about participation of local mappers? Is it likely that we'll see 10 people participating, half of them not even living in the area, and each of them importing 300,000 of the 3 million buildings? That would be my main fear about this; it is not unheard of for previous building footprint imports in the US to be called a "community import" but the community was really a very eager one-digit number of people who mostly didn't even have any ties to the area they were importing in. Can we have the hope that the LA building footprint import will be handled by people who have actually been to the area they see on their editor screen? Will there be people participating in this community import as part of their day job?
