I just checked your edits. I thing it will be great if you add the tag “building=yes” to the buildings you are adding. In that case those buildings will be visible on the map. And maybe you can thing about another change: mapping buildings and the shops separetly as a nodes. I have no idea how it works in Brazil but in Europe we have offen more shops in one building and once we map the shop as a node, we can easily add another one next to it.
And one more tip: in Potlach, which are you using for your edits, you can make the buildings easily right-angled. How to do it is explained on the wiki.
Good luck with your edits! :-)

Xkomczax, thank you indeed.
Baditaflorin, Laser Scanning, also known by 3d laser scanning is a technic to measure distance, height and other information using a special camera to capture it. Some example could be seen at: http://hds.leica-geosystems.com/en/index.htm http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_Scanning http://www.3dtotal.pt/content_pt.html
