Hi Martin,

Thanks for the response.

1. Whether the building is permanent or not.

> what are your definitions for semipermanent and non-permanent?

So non-permanent is a building structure constructed for a defined short period 
of time. Like Circus tent for example. It stays there for a defined 1 month. 
I can also imagine temporary warehouses / tents during the harvest period at 
countryside-marketplaces or movable markets, though I cannot really give a good 
real-life example.
Something like this: https://goo.gl/images/nMf3gQ <https://goo.gl/images/nMf3gQ>

Semi-permanent are constructions that are technically non-permanent but stay 
there for an indefinite amount of time. Something like we have a trailer house 
that just stays there and it’s not intended to be moved anytime in future.

This differentiation is confusing however it is important to make this 
differentiation - semi-permanent buildings usually have a stronger strategic 
value then non-permanent. In case of evacuation - non-permanent structures can 
be easily deconstructed or abandoned, but semi-permanent might not. And the 
inhabitants might be less resistant to get evacuated if they inhabit 
semi-permenent structure comparing to permanent building. 

2. Whether the building is permanent or not.

So do you think it a good idea to map existence of basement of the building by 
building_levels:underground = yes

3. Shape of the building

We need this for statistic purposes. To make it human-readable, the proposal 
was to have values like {box, rectangular, t-shaped, l-shaped}. 
Ideally a classifier can be trained to derive these values from raw way 
geometry, but we still need to come up with reasonable common building shapes 
that are acceptable to be included in OSM data. 
Any suggestions?

4. Slope of the site where building is located.

> we don't map it. Where would you attach this tag to?

Attached to building. The damage form disasters like flood will be 
highly-related to this surface slope.

Again thanks a lot for your feedback.

Best,
Taras.
