Service stations in France
Description
This dataset is built from the [XML flow] (https://www.data.gouv.fr/en/datasets/prix-des-carburants-en-france/) of the year 2014 (d-7...) of the Ministry of Economy (http://donnees.roulez-eco.fr/opendata/annee). It contains service stations (in the form of points of interest) with a year-round sales volume of more than 500 cubic metres (all products combined).
The "fuels" field is generated according to whether there are declared tariffs for each of them and takes into account their break dates (if any). If a breakage is indicated and a price is then mentioned at a later date for this type of fuel, this fuel will be present. If no price is mentioned later, this type of fuel will not be included. This field is therefore reliable at the time of generation of the CSV.
The "services" field is not completely reliable, at least for the LPG. After several checks, if this field contains "LPG" but the field "fuels" does not contain it, it can be considered that the station does not sell any. The legal obligation to supply the file concerning only the prices at the pump, the list of other services offered may not be up to date.
It is therefore also not possible to completely trust the opening hours. The source XML model does not lend itself to precision. For example, an establishment is indicated as being open from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. except on Saturdays and Sundays.
In reality, the hours of this establishment are: from 8h to 12h and from 14h to 18h from Monday to Friday, from 8h30 to 12h30 on Saturday and closing on Sunday.
Fortunately, many pumps are now equipped with credit cards. But unfortunately this information is not specified in the XML.
**List of fields and meanings:**
"id": Ministry ID
"latlng": GPS coordinates of the form "latitude,longitude"
"road type": "A" for motorway and "R" for road
"address": address whose cart returns are materialized by the character "|"
"municipality": name of the municipality
"postcode": Postal code of the municipality
"hdebut": opening time
"hfin": closing time
"except day": the above days or times do not apply
"services": list of services offered separated by the character "|"
"fuels": list of available fuels separated by the character "|"
"activity" means: "O" if the establishment is in operation, "N" otherwise and "T" for temporary closure (some have been since 2009). This field results from the same type of treatment as for ruptures, so it is reliable at the time of generation of the CSV.
