Looking at several bits of mapping in Africa it seems to be normal to use a rectangle tagged building=house.
Would a simple POI tagged building=house be acceptable? Most rendering systems will drop an icon on a tagged POI, they take up a little less room in the database and its faster to drop a POI in the center of a house than draw a square. Is there a special reason for using rectangles in this way rather than POIs? Thanks John
