The wiki talks about grand ideas. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Canada/Building_Canada_2020
But what it doesn't do is give examples of how to enrich the building outlines. When I spoke to Stats Canada it was the enrichment that was the most valuable How many churches are there? How many apartment buildings? How many levels (floors)? How many care homes etc. WiFi available? Website? I'd think in terms of streetcomplete an android app for filling a lot of these gaps but there are other software packages around such as Vespucci on android, iD on whatever iD runs on. JOSM but you need someone present who knows it. It is excpetionally useful for accurately drawing building outlines though. I don't know what school students at various grades are capable of. I think the wiki page would be more useful if it listed what enriching details would be useful and how to tag them. I would suspect that printing out a map with the buildings on it so notes could be made in the field might be useful. Thoughts? Anyone with some expertise about what works for a mapathon with students? Thanks John
