<br>
I' experimenting with osmxapi to get a list of all places in Belgium.<br>
Getting a list of all places is no problem, but the list is a bit too<br>
large ;)<br>
<br>
Can I specify that I only want the places in Belgium? Can this be done<br>
with bbox?<br>
<br>
Is there a known mapping that give you the exact bbox for each country?<br>
<br>
Thx, Johan Huysmans<br>
