[OSM-dev] Overpass API areas

[Jais Pedersen]

I'm trying to get all nodes with a place tag in the Vietnamese province
Dong
Thap (relation id 1875866), but i don't get any result using:

<query type="node">
  <area-query ref="3601875866"/>
  <has-kv k="place"/>
</query>
<print mode="meta"/>

and if I request the areas for one of the towns in that province (Sa Dec
node id
369503214) using this:

<coord-query lat="10.2943724" lon="105.7588116"/>
<print mode="body"/>

i only get the Vietnam relation (id 49915).

If i ask for all the nodes with a place tag in Vietnam like this:

<query type="node">
  <area-query ref="3600049915"/>
  <has-kv k="place"/>
</query>
<print mode="meta"/>

I get what i expect. If i test the example on in the documentation:

<coord-query lat="51.25" lon="7.15"/>
<print mode="body"/>

I get several administrative relations.

What am I doing wrong? or what is wrong with the Dong Thap relation?

I have been using http://overpass.osm.rambler.ru/query_form.html for
testing the
queries since the examples in the forms/buttons in the documentation does
not
seem to work correctly.
