Dette kunne måske være relevant for Night of the living maps arrangementet og måske også løse Heddas "too much data" problem:<br><br>/Jais<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">---------- Forwarded message ----------<br>

To: <a href="mailto:talk@openstreetmap.org">talk@openstreetmap.org</a><br><br><br>Dear JOSM users,<br>
<br>
Mapping events have in the past often triggered an API block from the admins<br>
due to too much download traffic. See e.g.<br>
<a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/API_usage_policy" target="_blank">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/API_usage_policy</a><br>
<br>
To avoid that, I've just started the JOSM plugin "mirrored_download". This<br>
plugin allows to download OSM data into JOSM from both instances of the<br>
Overpass API and thus avoids download requests to the main API at all.<br>
<br>
As an extra bonus to all plugins users, Overpass API is almost always faster<br>
than the main API. As both Overpass servers have still only a load of 5%-15%<br>
even at peak hours, there is much room for more download traffic.<br>
<br>
Just install the plugin (under preferences > plugins > mirrored_download),<br>
restart JOSM and then use "Mirrored download > Download from OSM..." instead<br>
of "File > Download from OSM...".<br>
<br>
If you run a readonly API yourself, feel free to add that one in the JOSM SVN<br>
at<br>
josm/plugins/mirrored_download/src/mirrored_download/UrlSelectionDialog.java<br>
after line 101.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
<br>
Roland Olbricht<br>
