Thanks for posting here!

Interesting topic, I learned something new what is always nice :)

As far as I can see everything is done well (though I am unfamiliar with topic
and language and relied on google translate)

It is definitely an import of a dataset, so it is good that you posted here!

I am unsure about, maybe some more generic tag would be better,
maybe not.

But if you end using zapis=yes - can you document it on 
OSM Wiki? Meaning of that tag is not obvious at all for
mappers from elsewhere.

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposal_process would be useful
if you would want to go with route of creating proposal

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Creating_a_page_describing_key_or_value
may be useful if you want to document it as a de facto tag
(local community is OK with that tagging, right?)
(page is kind of draft that I created recently, so let me know if something is
confusing/missing)
