Are you looking for all admin boundaries level 2-4 worldwide or just country by country ?
FYI, if you take only France, admin_level 4 represents more than 4MB of compressed data. What do you want to get at the end exactly ? OSM raw data to work on or geometries in a PostGIS database ? You may try overpass-API, but due to the size of the result, it may just giveup too. 2014-03-31 18:08 GMT+02:00 James Conkling <[email protected]>: > Hi all, > > I've been trying to find the best way to extract global admin boundaries > for admin_level 2 - 4 (or more, depending on size).
