A comment the data is of high quality and the building outlines are of particular interest to the Stats Canada Project where Statistics Canada is attempting to crowd source adding tags added to non residential buildings within the City of Ottawa and Gatineau. These include the number of levels and the use of the building. They will be suggesting using a customised iD to their general public but given the experience of iD mapping buildings in HOT it was thought that importing the building outlines would give a better quality map at the end.
