Don't forget building height! That is also often missing and has a big effect on 3d renders.

Yep, although I think StreetComplete does at least ask "how many levels in a building", which allows for pretty good approximations most of the time

@balsoft I think this quest is disabled by default these days and has to be re-enabled in the settings.
