A good dataset may be address point data, if available. I know we have
GNAF, but we've been unable to get the explicit permission needed.

Coverage is OK at the moment, so any import would be better as a
semi-manual, street by street kind of thing.


Public toilets, BBQs, Playgrounds, Park names, etc also spring to mind.
