<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Hi,<div>Thank you for the response.

That's what I have<br>> done last weekend instead of downloading tiles for zooms 14-15, and it<br>> turned out to be much easier that it looks.

Try here: http://download.geofabrik.de/north-america.html — you<br>> need an [.osm.pbf] file.<br>> <br>> IZ<br>> <br></div> </div></body>
