Routes with Not Avaliable stations imported in ABPR

Recently, I watched a video from a YouTube channel (PowerArt) that tests vehicles, in which they conducted a real test of a route using only ABPR planning (without prior consultation of each operator's app). For the Madrid-La Coruña route, it planned a stop at a charger that has never been operational (Endesa Rest. San Roque Medina del Campo). In the video, it shows how they arrive at the charger and find it sealed.

I checked ABPR, and indeed, that charger appears in the list of stations, although it doesn't yet appear in the Endesa X app. So, I assumed they obtained the data from another source (OpenChargeMap). In this database, it also appeared as "Not Operational" (I regularly update this database in Spain).

Recently, I updated the status field of these stations that are planned or built but are awaiting permits to become operational. They are now labeled as "Planned for Future Date." In Spain, there are many such stations because it can take more than a year from construction to operation, especially for higher-power ones.

I suggest filtering the data when importing stations from OpenChargeMap, including only those with the status field set to "Operational," or at least filtering out those with the status field set to "Planned for Future Date."

This way, it will prevent the app from planning with unavailable chargers.

I regularly update the status of these chargers each month when they become operational, additionally incorporating the charger model with its specifications and limitations (maximum amperage).
