Integrate linked parking data into an OSM tool

[jbelien]

Issue created by @joostschouppe on 12 Mar 2018.

See http://datapiloten.be/parking/
Step 1: add URI to OSM data object (probably requieres some basic data modelling extension in OSM)
Step 2: build an OSM tool that queries the URI to give the end user the availablle parking spaces (for example Maps.me or Osmand)

Really like the idea but I don't think it would be a good idea to add links to a Proof Of Concept website some things doesn't seem to work anymore - like graphs) and the website only covers a few cities.

Would be awesome to have that kind of tool though !

Let's (try to) find out where the data comes from and start with that !

I talked to @pietercolpaert meanwhile, and he basically said the same thing. But this thing is going out of POC phase pretty soon, so we could already look for usecuses, even if it is not yet for real life use just yet.

The latest page of this PoC is at https://smart.flanders.be/piloten/parkeren.html

Right now there’s only the city of Ghent that published official URIs for their parking lots and it would already make sense to put these in OSM!
