[Qgis-user] OSM download error

2015-04-22 Thread Simon Lange
Using QGis 2.0.1. on Ubuntu.
It has been discussed several times, yet, I cannot figure out how to download open street maps layer for the sake of using the features (roads, parks etc.). instead, after choosing one of the three options (loading from canvas, manual) the download does not succeed. Anyone who can help me out?

You can use the QuickOSM plugin. It deals with the overpass API. You can
specify which feature you want.
QuickOSM can also open an external OSM file if you want to get all the
columns available. From the menu Add vector layer, it's not possible.

If you don't mind about columns and specific feature, have a look to the
OSM downloader plugin.

I'm on a later version of QGIS which can download OSM data. A couple of
tips. Make sure the area you are selecting is not too large. Try a smaller
area. I believe the api max is .5 degrees by .5 degrees. Second, choose a
file name. If the download is successful you should have a [yourfile].osm
saved. The .osm file can be opened with the Add Vector Layer control.

As an alternative, you can install JOSM [1] to download the area. If the
area you want is too big for a single download, download a bunch of smaller
areas until you have what you need. Then save the data layer to a file with
a .osm extension.

Hope that helps.

Clifford

According to this page:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Overpass_API/Overpass_QL#Bounding_Box

the bounding box should be in degrees.

I see, the OSM download code doesn't transform coordinates on the fly...
