When i have time, i also add the ways in the parking lots, mostly because i know that here at telenav it`s generating a lot of false positive missing roads, that are in fact parking ways. The algorithm can filter somehow between missing roads and parking lots, based on the speed, but better, if i can map it, i tend to add the info. If not at least to do the square to represent the area.
