Where is BMW gas price data coming from?

Anyone knows where the BMW apps "gas prices" data is coming from? Which database? This is the price data that you can consult inside the car. It knows where the stations are and also the current price of gas.

I have tried apps for my smartphone and various websites but none of them are as complete as the BMW database and they all appear to rely on user-contributed data, vs. the BMW database which appears to be accurate and not user-contributed. I have examples of gas stations that have data in BMW apps, but not in GasBuddy or other websites.

I was hoping to maybe find a website/app that leverages the same data as BMW.

EDIT: found this, but it's a paid service. Maybe what BMW uses. http://www.opisnet.com/products/reta...on-prices.aspx
