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.
