Hey Rob,
if they made up their mind about the license
(https://github.com/hmrc/eat-out-to-help-out-establishments/issues/3 - Apache
2.0 is software, not data) the ~100 entries with wrong postcode data
(https://github.com/hmrc/eat-out-to-help-out-establishments/issues/18) out of
62k entries would be ok.
But yeah, it would be great to have some very recent establishment data.
Grouping the Postcodes, there are
38,563 unique postcodes (62.1 % of entries)
6,326 pcs occur twice (20.1 %)
1,800 pcs occur thrice (8.7 %)
611 four times (3.9 %)
214 five times (1.7 %)
...
checking those data against the FHRS-OpenData would be relatively easy and very
quick to implement and would allow for 96.5% of the entries to be checked. Once
one has the FHRS data finding an appropriate OSM object becomes easier.
Someone™ would have to do the coding and once licensing and usage are clear,
the data could be used :-)
