Thanks for the praise, Tony,

yes, the plugin needs EITHER of addr:city, addr:street or addr:postcode (addr:housenumer will not be sufficient). If these are missing, the FHRS API will complain that the process might take too much CPU capacity, and thus will not return any result. This is why one of these is required.

From what I understand, Dave was asking for a why to locate _any_ estabishment in the vicinity that hasn't got an ID, but should. Let's see if this is doable :)

Hi

It works without the FHRS:ID - just used it on 5 businesses I know.

It needs the address details  - road and place seem to be sufficient, post code is optional.

The FHRS -> Search entry will take the address details and get one or more entries - select which you want. Then a dialog appears offering which tags to be selected for adding to the OSM object including the FHRS:ID

I've reported one issue, but otherwise I regards this as a great assistant.

And of course, you're right Dave, it would be great to lookup stuff that hasn't got FHRS info. As I was already planning on implementing the Business Types from the API to check if the amenity fits, I shall see if I can gather information on objects on the layer that could poentially have FHRS info - searching through each and every one of them could take some time though.

As the OSM entity has to already contain the FHRS:ID tag it limits the
usefulness of this plugin. Won't most have address data added when
contributors initially add the FHRS tag? I certainly do.

What would be useful is a way to search the LA's database for retailers
which don't have a FHRS tag.

Good morning everyone,

I built a plugin for JOSM that allows you to merge data from the FHRS
API into OSM with a few clicks. I'd love to find some people that would
be willing to test the 0.1.2 version and report bugs they found and/or
comment on the user experience.

Just throw me a line at [email protected] and I'll send you the download link.

Thanks in advance!

Kai
