Hi.
Thought about the idea, and perhaps the following approach could work
(better):
Assume, the mapper wants to collect the shops in a street segment.
- walk from one end of the segment to the other in approximately
constant speed (arbitrarily slow/fast).
- press button everytime passing a shop "position" (where the node
should be later)
- use microphone or keyboard to add notes to the individual nodes added
- later post-process the nodes - more or less automatically.
regards

In some detailed shop tagging I'm doing it feel's like I'm missing a method of declaring
that a given shop is more than the width of one "shop unit". I'm considering
adding units=2, units=3 etc for such cases.
I think it would be particularly useful to demonstrate that the whole of a row
of shops has been surveyed. After taking account of the units tag, any gaps in
a line of nodes - on a fully surveyed street - could be taken to be private
houses or empty space.
Of course there's no standard width for a shop. Yet that need not matter - in
very many places there is a consistency of shop widths, a width that can be
deduced from the typical node spacing.
Are there any other methods people have been using to denote this? Maybe
width=<n> units would be better.
Note that nodes on street corners don't necessarily work well with units=* or
width=*...
