[OSM-dev] XAPI

[Fredy Yanez]

Thanks! 


I understand that i might not get 100% coverage. That is okay. Any data that I can get is useful.


How would one go about contacting a friendly operator of a osm2pgsql server?

There are multiple reasons why this is not going to work, not the       least that there have been no public native XAPI servers available       for a very long time.     
See http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Xapi     
But in any case extracting anything for the whole world from any       API is not a good idea, I would suggest downloading a planet dump       and filtering the objects out of it, or asking a friendly operator       of a osm2pgsql server with the whole planet imported to generate a       list of schools for you.     
The other thing to take in to account, that while we undoubtedly       have a lot of schools in OSM and in some areas will have 100%       coverage this is definitely not universal.

          Good afternoon,        

              

              
I'm working for a no profit and our goal is to measure         internet connectivity for every school in the world. It would be         very beneficial is we had access to every school within the         database. To do this I've been trying to use XAPI and I'm having         a few errors.       

              

              
For example when I try to use XAPI URLs:       
 wget --timeout=0 http://www.informationfreeway.org/api/0.6/node[amenity=schools] -O data.osm       
       
I get this link as a response:        

              
         
http://www.informationfreeway.org/noapi.html         

                    
and in data.osm I get :         
/////////////////////////         
<!-- Avoid logging 404 errors             when /api requests received -->         
                    
No API         

                    
////////////////////////         

                    
I was wondering what I'm doing             wrong?         
My guess is that I'm not             authenticating or something along those lines.         

                    
What is the best way to solve             this problem ?         

                    
Thanks !
