[Product] Open database of Products

[Nicolas Pieuchot]

Hello Sach,

Thank you for your interest into product open data.

>From the database you have downloaded, once imported, you should find a
table named "GTIN", in this table, you can find a "GTIN_NM" which
corresponds to the product name.

If you look for the products pictures, you can either :
- Download the pictures archive *(recommended)* :
http://www.product-open-data.com/docs/pod_pictures_gtin_2013.08.29_01.zip
- Access the gtin_img by querying the OpenDataSoft POD API :
http://pod.opendatasoft.com/explore/dataset/pod_gtin/?tab=api
- Access the gtin_img by querying the POD API :
http://www.product-open-data.com/product/<GTIN_HERE>

About the link between brand, brand_owner and gs1_gcp, it isn't done yet.
For the time being, you can solely find the "BSIN" field (Brand Standard
Identification Number) in the "GTIN" table which will allow you to link a
GTIN to a brand.

Please, feel free to tell us if you're interested to contribute to product
open data in order to accelerate the process of having the link between a
GCP and a BSIN.

Sincerely,
Nicolas
