Hi,

is anybody aware of 3rd party APIs that are integrated into the OSM
database? An example for what I mean would be a mapped car park with an
API link added as a tag that offers functionality such as retrieving the
number of available parking spots. Another example would be uic_ref
values on railway=station objects or ref:X values on highway=bus_stop
objects which also allow using 3rd party APIs using these identifiers.
Yet another example I already know about are Wikidata identifiers that
allow queries to the Wikidata Query Service.

Thanks for any input on this,
Sebastian
