Hi all,

I have created a small script that shows how chain shops are tagged in
a given set of
OpenStreetMap-data.

This script creates wiki-output like this:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Shop_tagging_in_The_Netherlands

The UK page is also based on this script:
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/UK_Retail_Chains

As this might also useful for other countries/communities, I have now made this
script available online:

https://github.com/math1985/openstreetmap-statistics-tools/

The wiki-output on the pages above is generated by the shops-wiki.php
file. The scripts maxspeed-completeness.py and shops-completeness.py
in the repository might also be useful, they are used to get an idea
of the completeness of shop tagging and maxspeed tagging in a given
area, respectively.
