The UK import of fuel stations turned seven months last week. It had multiple discussions on two mailing lists. The company pulled back from the import after five months, I am finishing it myself now. Do you think this is good for OpenStreetMap?

For completeness, the "imports" thread from May is at https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/imports/2017-May/thread.html#4956 and the equivalent "talk-gb" thread at https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-gb/2017-May/thread.html#20205 . The actual data was found to have useful components, but had a number of errors (invalid street names and implausible opening hours among others).  You then raised it again last month https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-gb/2017-November/020828.html , and then just over three weeks ago announced http://audit.osmz.ru/project/shell in https://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-gb/2017-November/020928.html .  That (and presumably also http://audit.osmz.ru/project/walmart ) is a great way to check through the data and to determine the tags to be copied over.

There are still things that would benefit from verification though; in the Shell case for example "NVDS353-12302183" http://audit.osmz.ru/run/shell/NVDS353-12302183 is suggested to be added as a new node when https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/5249220844 is clearly the item to be updated (it's relatively new, but has preseumably been mapped from survey and is also on ESRI's imagery for the area).  I'd expect the same to be true of Walmart - lots of the data will be correct, but it'll still need checking to pick up the occasional issue.

Best Regards,

Andy
