Roofs we still need photos for
The thirty-two NHL arenas in the real venues are drawn in the outline of their buildings, but most roofs are a plain fixed lid marked as ours, because no open source says what shape they are. This page lists each arena: the roof the package draws today, what open sources say about its shape, and whether one photo is still needed to draw it. It is a list for the person who can supply photos; nothing here changes a drawing.
What helps: one clear photo of the whole roof, either from above (an aerial) or from outside at a distance, in daylight, with the roof in view and not hidden by trees, flags or a crowd. The shape of the roof matters more than its colour or its age. Photos are looked at only, to draw the shape. They are never committed to the repository or published: their licences are not known, so each one stays in the Dropbox folder named in its row.
Shape keys: fixed is the package's generic lid (ours); saddle and barrel are the two shapes drawn from a source. "Nothing found" means no open source read here says anything about the roof's shape; it is not a claim that the roof is plain.
Counts: 2 of 32 arenas have a shape a source gives (Scotiabank Saddledome, American Airlines Center), and both are already drawn. The other 30 need one photo each.

Worth drawing now: nothing gives a shape beyond the two already drawn. Rogers Place's OpenStreetMap roof:height=7.00 (ODbL) is a height for the lid, which the package could use for the rise of its roof; the shape stays the lid. KeyBank Center's roof:shape=many cannot be drawn as a shape, and Little Caesars Arena's clear roof is its concourse.
