It was originally designed so that feedback could be given to mappers 
tagging buildings in a city without resorting to overpass and other more 
technical solutions.

It shows how many tags have been added and how rich they are.  It 
generates both list of tags used building= and other associated tags 
such as building:levels gives a count by each.

A CSV file is generated which means it is fairly simple to graph the 
data using a spreadsheet such as LibreOffice Calc.

It can be used to verify the correct tags have been used for example 
parts of Africa have many variations of Semi-Permanent for building and 
it might be useful for projects using on the ground mappers in cities.
