Looking over the license it seems fine for inclusion into OSM, provided
we acknowledge it on the Contributors page. Also my very basic
understanding of French seems to indicate that the French community
would like to be told about the impending import.
Looking at the data (CSV and XSLX - which is most up to date) the data
consists of names and addresses, no GPS co-ordinates.
This is an import that would have to have some pre-processing done.
Using Nominatim I looked up the very first data line by the address and
Nominatim found the address and returned an address node, to which
Wheelmap specific tags (HANDICAP column seems to have some information)
could be added.
http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/details.php?place_id=44798987
So I would advise anyone thinking of importing this to do an automated
Nominatim lookup for each entry and get the corresponding item or at
least GPS co-ordinates.
Also I would probably add the Wheelmap tags to the house itself - this
requires a second lookup to find a building=* at the GPS co-ordinates
returned by Nominatim, to get the ID of the building. The French have
imported lots of buildings and addresses (seperately) and so I'm sure
most of the tourist places would find a matching address and or building.
This import would need some coding to work, and decisions need to be
taken on what information to add, that first place for example is not
marked as a tourist attraction currently so a 3rd option could be to add
new nodes with the information from the import file, co-existing with
the address nodes and the buildings.
Best of luck,
Jóhannes

Hi,
this is my first post to this mailing list, please be gentle. ;) I'm
the co-founder of http://wheelmap.org - a map for wheelchair
accessible places (all OSM data & contributing back). We are a
non-profit organization based in Germany and getting more and more
data sets offered and struggle what to do next. Of course we try to
educate them about OSM and the import principles, but the people who
approach us are not firm in dealing with this.
Since we are interested in the data, we would love to see them in OSM
(and Wheelmap) if they are usable.
Example:
ca 5000 touristic places in France published under "Open Licence" [1]:
https://www.data.gouv.fr/fr/datasets/les-etablissements-tourisme-handicap/
The data owners approached us. I saw the data set was already
mentioned on
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_France/data.gouv.fr but
its status is unclear to me. What can I tell her?
I'm not firm with import tools, how can I help to get this data in OSM
(if there will be a consensus to import them)? Since it is our mission
as a non-profit to make the world a more inclusive place, I'm
confident we could maybe even do some fundraising to pay somebody to
work on this. Is this advisable? Has this been done before?
Thanks,
Holger
