Hi,
I wrote a web-application for planning Wikipedia photography
expeditions: http://ausleuchtung.ch.local/geo_wiki/
Click on the map and it shows all Wikipedia articles geo-locations in
the radius of 10 km around the click. Wikipedia language is changed by
replacing "en" for English on "fr" for French, "de" for German, etc.
Web-application memorizes the map position, zoom level, and language of
the last request.
This web-application is based on Media Wiki API [1]. All the heavy
lifting is done by the Media Wiki API, the web-application is just about
20 lines of code. But it works surprisingly robustly all over the world,
for all Wikipedia languages.
Now I want to find in a similar way the geo-locations of Wikipedia
articles, however not via Wikipedia articles coordinates, but via the
OSM nodes (or areas) which have "wikipeida=", "wikimedia_commons=",
"wikidata=" tag. Is there a way to do it via an OSM API? Without parsing
big dump files?
I repeat for clarity - I need to retrieve coordinates of nodes which
have the OSM "wikipeida=", "wikimedia_commons=", "wikidata=" tag in the
radius of 10 kilometres. I started to explore the Osmosis, the MapQuest
Geocoding API, etc., but it seems to be an uncommon request. Is it
possible at all?
With best regards,
Oleksiy
