We are planning to import all municipalities in Romania, but with merge with the current data, so we need to know if there are already nodes for each of the municipalities we're importing. For this I wrote a code which requests the map around a place's coordinates within a 10 km² area (but can be configured) and, for instance, for the Olt county (aprox. 5500 km²) there are 390 municipalities. The entire county has 238 391 km² and 40 counties, but they have different densities, of course. We know there are multiple municipalities with the same name, so we can't easily use the country extract (also keeping the dom for the entire country in memory is probably not feasible) to detect data which already exists; even if we'd work with the country extract, we'd need to query the places to get the current data, while race conditions could appear and we might end up with duplicate places. Would such an import be considered over the limit? Should we rather query for the map for a wider area and reuse, than querying for small chunks? -- Regards, EddyP ============================================= "Imagination is more important than knowledge" A.Einstein
