Following up on the suggestions from the first post, I’ve had a look at the PTV website and datasets.
While it does contain a lot of useful information, it doesn’t include things like shop awnings, which often provide informal but useful shelter at many tram stops. It also doesn’t include a lot of local council infrastructure, such as benches, which are not owned or controlled by the state government and are not included in that data.
In any case, it makes the project more interesting if it requires fieldtrips :) Combining this with my own local knowledge (and hopefully that of others too who are willing to contribute), it is not that arduous a task. If anything, it is very eye-opening as to how poorly serviced many tram stops are, especially for those in wheelchairs.
