JSON would be great!


It would be nice to get all schools (k-12) and all the information that is available in regards to the school ( i.e name of school, lat & long, if possible country, state/providence etc).


Let me know if you need anymore information.


Thanks so much!!!

I can probably do it for you, I need to know the file/data format       you would like and projection (I assume you want points and that       the output should be de-duplicated in some form). All tags? Or       just some specific one?

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 :                     
/////////////////////////

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 !
