Objectives

Gardening shops take a lot of times and could be difficult in some cases. This tool is a bridge between data from All The Places (ATP) and OSM.

It's only focused on the Metropolitan France area. That should be extended to DROM-COM (DOM-TOM) in later versions.

The tool only adds new tags that are missing in the actual points of view.

The tool never:

• Adds new points on OSM

• Removes points or tags on OSM
• Updates existing points on OSM

How the automated edit works (high‑level description)

The tool follows these steps, some optional parameters can make variant in the executions.

1. Setup ATP database: Download the latest ATP data, create indexes to queried ATP data.
2. Setup OSM database: Create appropriate view and indexes to queried OSM data.
3. Execute the query: Every matching points of view from ATP and OSM are returned (one pair by row).
4. Compute the difference: For each matching pair, compute the tag difference. Filter out every equivalent points of view based on tag.
5. Upload: With the OSM API v0.6 upload adding tags. Batch are grouped by french department area and brand.
6. Save logs: A log file is created for each run (by french department).

The matching criteria

ATP and OSM points of view are matched based on those criteria

• Distance between ATP and OSM position must be less than 500 meters.

• At least one of the following tag must be strictly equal:
  • brand:wikidata
  • brand
  • name
  • website or contact:website
  • phone or contact:phone
  • email or contact:email
