I thought it would be a good start in OSM to improve the mapping of my own neighborhood. I have worked on the road alighnmets, adding bridges etc. I also started adding addresses. I am pretty sure these are all good things to do. One thing I have started that I am not sure of is adding building outlines for all the houses for which that is possible based on the Bing Satellite images. I have looked around in some larger cities (not an extensive search though) and haven't seen any buildings outlined in residential neighborhood only in more commercial districts. Is there some reason I should not do this? Maybe it hasn't been done because it doesn't add much useful information but is labor intensive? It is a bit tedious but I figured if everyone just did their own neighborhood, large areas could be done. Any thoughts?
