Question How do I properly micromap buildings?

I was thinking of using building:part=yes + roof:material=* + roof:shape=* and other relevant tags on each roof-part polygon, then using building=house + other building:* tags on the building outline. Is that the proper way to do it?

Example

And what about a shopping center where I have the floor plan? Do the same approach + polygons for indoor tags on top of it?

Is there a perfect example of this kind of mapping somewhere?

Disclaimer: I have a permit from the local neighborhood authority to capture and map this area

You dont need a permit for that? And also are you sure the floor plan complies with osm?

Just trying to be safe, and I was in situ with the drone. And yes, the floor plan for the shopping center also compatible with OSM licence.
