Hi Lester,

Bigger collage complexes may well have additional catering outlets
across multiple campuses which need separate objects for each campus,
building and potentially each identifiable outlet. It should not be a
problem identifying each outlet and since the FHRS data is open licence
http://ratings.food.gov.uk/enhanced-search/en-GB/Rugby%20School/Rugby/Relevance/0/%5E/%5E/1/1/20
provides every inspection point and the raw data can be download from
http://ratings.food.gov.uk/OpenDataFiles/FHRS319en-GB.xml and a couple
of the 8 entries for Rugby School are at the same postcode. So one needs
separate objects to hold these fhrs:id records rather than the campus
boundary.

Bottom line ... there should be separate objects where that is necessary
and it would be nice if the larger operations such as Rugby School
helped with detailed campus maps as many of the collage and university
sites have been doing?

I agree that in the case of more complex campuses each separate FHRS ID should be attached to the relevant building if possible, and I think that the associated postcode should also be attached to that building rather than to the school boundary in these cases. This is what I have done in the case of Rugby School (with the added bonus of local knowledge) and it seems to work well e.g. Stanley House within Rugby School: http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/259571188.

The comparison tool (http://gregrs.dev.openstreetmap.org/fhrs/) can also be used to visualise the location of each FHRS inspection point (although these aren't always geographically accurate as within the FHRS data they are based on the location of the postcode centroid), whether this inspection point has been linked to an OSM node/way using the fhrs:id tag and whether the postcodes match. My hope is that this should remove the need to download the data manually.

Thanks,
Greg
