Toot

Foursquare released a dataset with 100m+ points of interest. https://location.foursquare.com/products/places/

IMO the Foursquare OS places dataset is barely usable. I just checked the closest pois and ALL were wrong, either outdated for a long time or simply wrong. "Judenherberge" instead of "Jugendherberge", come on...

@JensWiesehahn

I had the same disappointing experience... Did a fast check around my old neighborhood and the info was outdated and included some stuff that didn't make any sense.

Sad trombone

@JensWiesehahn which POI data set do you think is good/better?

@LonelyBob Actually I don't know, but if a large amount of pois is wrong it might be even better to not use any data.

It depends if users or producers accuracy is more important to you.
