Depending on<br>
the data source, it might add too much out-of-date data. I fear that<br>
armchair mappers will blindly copy the data without cross referencing<br>
other sources that indicate that the shop was closed/moved. Using up<br>
to date photo's from OpenStreetView or Mapillary could overcome this<br>
problem, when the mapper is willing to spend enough time and does want<br>
to be the mapper that finishes most tiles in the shortest period.<br></blockquote><div><br></div></span><div>There is no open data source for shops that I'm aware of, so this would in fact be a collect data + map task. There is of course the option of taking an area that is already densely mapped in Mapillary (say, central Brussels) and define a task there. Then the "validation" step would be to go into the field and collect the last bits of info.</div></div><div class="m_-7591570496210063152gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div></div></div></div></div></div>
