Matching progress

The graph below shows the progress made in matching Food Hygiene Rating Scheme establishments to OpenStreetMap objects using the fhrs:id and addr:postcode or not:addr:postcode tags. Matching objects are considered to have the same postcodes when the FHRS postcode matches either the OpenStreetMap object’s addr:postcode or its not:addr:postcode.

20.9% of FHRS establishments (124,820 out of 596,141) have been successfully matched to OpenStreetMap objects as of Thursday 13 March 2025.

The median percentage of FHRS establishments matched in a district is 21%. A quarter of districts have 9% or less of their FHRS establishments matched but 4 out of 361 districts have at least 90% of their FHRS establishments matched. (These statistics ignore unmatched FHRS establishments without a location and only consider matches where the FHRS establishment’s postcode is the same as the OpenStreetMap object’s addr:postcode or not:addr:postcode.)
