I disagree, for navigation purposes it's often useful to know something
about the buildings in the area. I also think they look rather nice :-)

Certainly for my client its commercial buildings that are of more interest and
I'm sure they would love full addressing and buildings correctly split into
individual properties but they are pragmatic and could probably go with
bounding outlines only at least initially. Do we think that adding ac

I think this depends on your purpose and the area.
If you just need to know "here be buildings" then there's no need to visit
the area. But if you need to know
Thank you everyone for your help and advice so far.
Your recommendations are along the lines I expected and you are right we could
use the OS vectormap district data specifically in our clients project which
may be the starting point but medium term our client will want something more
detailed.
If vector map district outlines are good enough for your application you
could use it to render maps without importing it into osm - just merge the
osm and vector map district data when you render it into images.

and Coventry from Warwicks CC aerial imagery. Mostly the work of OSMers who
are retired and have the time and patience to do this. We've also wor
