Thanks for the tip. I'm really after a clean extension of the XAPI syntax. The examples from Overpass API you show me seem to be little bit weird: > 1) > (node["name"="Lichtscheid"];node["name"="Müngstener Straße"]);out; Why parantheses? That's not needed here (and in XAPI neither). Why semicolon between tags? Is this the operator for OR? > 2) > way["highway"!="residential"](50.7,7.1,50.701,7.101);out; [2] Why "out" and why a semicolon before that? That's not URL like. Why "(50.7,7.1,50.701,7.101)"? There is a "[bbox=left,bottom,right,top]" parameter in XAPI for that. But what inspires me is the simple idea of != for NOT.
