With one exception there is no quota - that exception is the download of existing data.

The quota is set at a level where nobody is expected to hit it in normal use, and we don't like to advertise the details too much because it will just encourage people to find ways to game it.

It's nothing to do with this repository anyway - the quota is implemented in [cgimap](https://github.com/zerebubuth/openstreetmap-cgimap) and configured by our [chef](https://github.com/openstreetmap/chef/) recipes. The rails implementation of the API doesn't actually enforce any quotas at all.
