Also, could it be useful for fire fighters?
It is useful for fire-fighters here, there is even a movement to place
signs on the street to indicate where they are, just like fire hydrants.
As for 'colouring-in' yes there are vast areas of blankness.
I'd adding farmyards at the moment .. there are 100s of square
kilometres of them all blank at present. It does at lest give some
indication that there is not nothing there.
Once I get bored with it I'll go back and add the bits of trees and
scrub and also homesteads and bits of natural=water (reservoir where I
can determine it).

Once again it depends on what use you think the data is going to be used
for. If you're interested in selling tennis court maintenance services
then it's useful information. Maybe you're interested in the spatial
distribution of tennis courts and their relationship to polo grounds?
I agree with Andrew that marking a building next to a private
swimming pool as anything other than "building=yes", almost
always calls for pure speculation. Whether it's a pool shed,
cabana or outside dunny.
Unless source=survey ....
