How to easily add a building in Open Street Map. Note that the building did not get completely drawn in this tutorial, a portion of the building in he shade was missed. Fortunately with Open Street Map you can go back and edit your features at any time. Also, JOSM does not automatically load the data when invoked from the edit drop down menu, you can see the areas where the data is not local because there is a yellow hashing. A workaround is provided here, but it is advised that you update your java so that the data auto updates.
