Mappings Projects

There's been some efforts to map Carnegie Mellon University, and University of Pittsburgh e.g. adding all academic and residential building, all public greens and spaces, all paths and stairs

Other than that there's always TIGER fixup to do the area. See Pittsburgh Battle Grid

Project page for importing Allegheny County data.
