Someone kindly updated the import catalogue page to suggest where the BP service station import came from. I have followed it up and have permission to use as copied below. I will also put a copy up for public record. This, or something similar, was imported by a declined user who refused to say where it came from, so all the stations will go as well as subsequent modifications.

If anyone wants a go, the (small) files can be found at http://www.bp.com/iframe.do?categoryId=9026935&contentId=7049357 and are in the format below.

Whether they *should* be imported again is another matter. A couple of locations could be checked against known points for accuracy. There will also be duplication, though that is fairly easy to fix bit by local mappers.

On your website you kindly provide a list of service stations along with their latitudes and longitudes at this link:

http://www.bp.com/iframe.do?categoryId=9026935&contentId=7049357 <http://www.bp.com/iframe.do?categoryId=9026935&contentId=7049357>

There appears to be no restriction on use, but I would like to confirm that you have no objection to its use in OpenStreetMap http://www.openstreetmap.org. The OpenStreetMap respects the IP rights of others so we like to be careful.

OpenStreetMap is a global project to create a unified set of freely available map making data. Our own version of the map can be seen at http://www.openstreetmap.org and shows fuel stations and their names, mostly added one by one by our contributors. We have over 500,000 contributors worldwide. All our data is mandated to be available under a free and open license for anyone to use without fee, this includes both individual and commercial use. Our current distribution license is the Open Database License, http://opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/ .

 Regards,
 Michael Collinson
