This is really impressive.

Rather disappointed to see that my condo building is flat despite being 4 floors and a nearly 20 year old renovation of a 100+ year old building. How does stuff like that happen? In the mean time the repo looks like good readin'

Simple: nobody entered the height of your condo building into OSM yet. You can change that. Be the change you want to see in the world!

My home has 2 floor if you enter from one side and 4 from the other side. Due to being on a hill. I wonder how to convince osm of that :D

There's exactly that example on the official OSM wiki page [1]. It's very useful to read their wiki while adding things to the map!

OSM and all related projects thrive on users' contributions -- be the change you want to see in the world and start contributing today :)

Happy mapping!

What I find funny is that they picked tree models that have branches down to the floor. So any tree next to a road blocks at least one lane when its branches should be several feet in the air.
