Hi all, Quick question regarding the OSM API.
I have a server setup for my OSM research - it has a very fast Internet link. My personal, home, broadband is much slower and limited to 5Gb per month. Anyway during April I downloaded the history files (in OSM-XML) for a couple of thousand ways. I just dumped wget commands into a bash script and let it chug away. The total size of all the XML files is about 1200 Mb. Anyway wanted to download an addition 2,000 ways (their full history) from the same machine today - example "wget http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/way/2048/history -O ./world-xml/history-2048.xml" I keep getting an ERROR 303 .. The error message doesn't make sense to me. However when I try this command from my machine at home - it downloads no problem. Have I found myself on a "banned" list? It would not be my intention to hog resources on anyone else - but I didn't think the requests were excessive. It took a couple of days to download the history files - i put an hour pause into the bash script after every 500 files downloaded. Suggestions, work-arounds? Thanks, Peter
