Hi Folks, I would like to import a few thousand POI to OSM with a self developed tool called osm_poi_matchmaker [1]. The tool is available under free license on Github and I am constantly working on its improvement. It is a python tool that download data from data sources (shops, post office, fuel stations) , converts a data and produces osm and csv files. It does not submit any data directly to OSM.
I am currently processing the beta quality output data in OSM format. I will release more import request based on available data. First I started with Hungarian Tesco stores [2] and Postal services[3]. I started a discussion on Hungarian OSMers to try to meet all requirements. The goals of these imports are: * Same type of POI should have same tags. I am using common tags that describe all of POI in that category. * Add richer tags for POIs * Provide opening hours when possible, with correct opening_hours format. * Provide POI custom minisite when available (For example Tesco stores have small pages for every store). * Try to enrich already mapped POI-s based on type and geom distance search. * Create POI nodes that aren't mapped at all. * Create osm file for review and import. The base account is what I use for import is: osmkami...@gmail.com Since gmail provides may to create simple aliases I will use osmkami911+hu-te...@gmail.hu, osmkami911*hu-p...@gmail.hu users for it. I updated the Hungarian Import page with these information [4]. I hope these import will help to make OSM even better. :) Thank you in advance!
