Sorry, I’m new here, but I’ve been using OSM in my app for five years now. It’s dedicated to architecture and contains 200,000 points worldwide.
These aren’t just points of interest, as they’re well-filtered by architectural style, creation time, and architect. Each object has a wiki description.
So, the question is: is importing into OSM worth considering, or is it a very specific and uninteresting thing?
My reason: I’m 65 years old, and someday there will come a time when I won’t be able to maintain my app and the data on the Hetzners server.
Here is data:
Definitely that helps and it seems like I wasn’t that far off. The main challenge what I see is the conflation, like find the already existing object in OSM that matches your dataset.

It’s very interesting thing! The biggest challenge will probably be matching your points with the building outlines in the OSM.
It seems that my internet is a bit corrupted (or probably your site is not working properly, because on https://apalladio.org/ I just see the Apache default page), and I cannot open your site. If you share your data on the google drive, I will see what can be done.
I’ve manage to open it. Your project is really nice!
In order to proceed, I guess, we would like to see data as json, or, say, excel file, and some kind of copyright declaration, because in osm we can upload datasets compatible with ODBL.
Yes, the source is wikipedia (there is one exclusion for Munich, but it plays no role).
Technically (if you are asking about technik) - it is not wiki API, because wiki API does not bring such fullness and such filters.
I wonder if you had suggestions for the project to make it easier to integrate such data.
Building a better interface (or even map layer) to access it assumes we already have a reasonable coverage at least in some regions.
Personally, I find that OSM tends to struggle with keeping building or street information together prioritizing routing and shopPOI over cultural information.
No, there are no proposals yet.
It won’t be a quick story, but I’ll need to get through it.
Actually, I need to figure out how import works in general, with its tags and so on.
The most natural thing would be, of course, to create a layer, if possible.
And to algorithmically avoid duplication, even if at the cost of losing a small (hopefully) amount of data.
No, it is worldwide. Look at the longitude/latitude
What concerns geographic distribution: addresse, cities, lands and so on - it is just what returns https://api.bigdatacloud.net for geoposition.
What api.bigdatacloud.net knows about this geoposition, that is completed.
I had a look on the license and it is cc-by-sa which unfortunately is not usable for OpenStreetMap. Are you able and would you be willing to give OpenStreetMap special permission?
