Bing Maps API - Geometry Data

Is it possible to get geometry/vector data from Bing Maps, such as a set of points that describe the shape of the continent of Australia, in a certain zoom level? I couldn't find anything about it, except for this discussion from 2009, which states that it is impossible.

So I wonder if anything had changed since then... I would be glad to know about any other possible solutions.

Thanks!

You will be able to retrieve such information by using the Bing Maps Spatial Data Services with the Geodata API. See : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn306801.aspx

And you can find examples here:
