Find and document building footprint datasets

[jpvelez]

For those interested in the built environment, it would be great to find all building databases out there, document their fields, and if possible programmatically map similar data fields to each other.

Here's a start:

• San Francisco
• Baltimore
• Philadelphia
• New York City
• Seattle
• Chicago
• DC
• Denver
• Los Angeles (not open because LA is an open gov dinosaur.)
