Hello, there is something I don't understand.
I am doing am map query with a given bounding box to the api and to the xapi osm server. But I get different results. An example: bb="bbox=7.80303955078,48.046873824,7.80578613281,48.0487099429" wget -O xapi.osm http://www.informationfreeway.org/api/0.5/map?$bb wget -O api.osm http://api.openstreetmap.org/api/0.5/map?$bb $ grep '<node' api.osm |wc -l 63 $ grep '<node' xapi.osm |wc -l 6 Why are there so few nodes in the answer of the xapi server? The wiki says: api [1]: | The following command returns: | | * All nodes that are inside a given bounding box and any relations | that reference them. | * All ways that reference at least one node that is inside a | given bounding box, any relations that reference them [the | ways], and any nodes outside the bounding box that the ways | may reference. | * All relations that reference one of the relations | included due to the above rules. (Does not apply | recursively.) xapi [2]: | * All nodes that are inside a given bounding box and any | relations that reference them. | * All ways that reference at least one node that is inside a | given bounding box, any relations that reference them [the | ways], and any nodes outside the bounding box that the ways | may reference. So I guess the number of nodes should be the same. thanks for your help. regards, stefan [1] http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_Protocol_Version_0.5#Retrieving_all_objects_in_a_boundi+ng_box [2] http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmxapi _______________________________________________ newbies mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/newbies
