Using OP to send data to JOSM for mass editing is one of the occasions I do use it to edit. However it's usually to filter the data first.

That is the standard API limit & I'm enquiring if that limit can be updated. - all that export does is redirect to the same API that JOSM etc use. Yes, I've noticed the limitations of JOSM. It's one of the reasons I don't use it as my general editor. That really isn't something that I would expect anybody much to use - if you want bulk data then sue the planet. The API is for editors. I don't think anyone would expect to "bulk" download, but surely a town or even a suburb should be acceptable? Again we should really never have added that to the share tab Again, the 'share tab' is something I never mentioned Why are you reluctant to read what's in front of you? as it just encourages people to think that is the correct way to reuse OSM data. It's up to them how the reuse the data. DaveF ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
[OSM-dev] Export: (limit is 50000).
Hi Main Page > Export*. I'm often getting the following message: "You requested too many nodes (limit is 5). Either request a smaller area, or use planet.osm" To get within this limit the downloadable area has been greatly reduced as more data is added to OSM, especially in urban areas. Is this based on server & connection speeds etc? If so has it been reviewed recently? With the increase in general computing power is there a reason this limit could not be increased? * I'm aware of alternatives for retrieving OSM data, but I'm inquiring specifically about this, on the main page where the vast majority have their initial interaction with OSM. Error messages just deter potential contributors. Cheers DaveF ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev

It would certainly save me a lot of email sending asking users to add it. If you mean the option I'm surprised your confused. I thought I was perfectly clear. The "share" tool offers a number of options and I just wanted to be clear which one we were talking about. I mentioned 'image' & I'm posting to the Development forum not Newbie. that gives you an image based on the default rendering then the answer is that all that option does is to to a custom render using mapnik, and that render has no way to add an attribution. Would it be much coding effort? Yes. I mean you can certainly do it, but it means writing a whole bunch of code to work out what font size to use then render some text and overlay it on the mapnik generated image. There must be calculations performed to create the clipped image especially considering the Scale: option provided. Inserting an image of the attribution into the corner of the map image at a defined percentage of its size can't add that much additional overheads, There are plenty of 'image stamper' programs on the market which do similar. The script is here: https://github.com/openstreetmap/chef/blob/master/cookbooks/tile/templates/default/export.erb Patches are welcome. Make sure they work for all the output formats ;-) Yeah, that's not really the answer, is it? My OSM time is spent creating data for the OSM database. I then spend additional time updating & maintaining that data. It a shame the creators of the main website are reluctant to do the same for their contributions. It's looking a bit tired & 'Win95ish'.
