I suspect you're the person I blocked last night because you were
apparently trying to scrape map data from the API with a large number of
presumably automated map calls.
If you are the person I blocked then in the last four days you've made a
total of 8186 map calls, an average of about 1.5 a minute.
If you want bulk data, please use the planet dump not the API to get it.
