I'd be very happy to implement that if we could establish a convention. Essentially I think you mean something not a million miles away from a capabilities request: 1. P2 says "hello, river server. Tell me what files are available for this lat, this long" 2. Serverside script returns a list of files (and, maybe, the formats they're available in) 3. P2 requests them one-by-one cheers Richard -- View this message in context: http://gis.638310.n2.nabble.com/NHD-data-where-to-put-preconverted-osm-files-tp6471551p6496204.html Sent from the USA mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
