[Talk-gb-westmidlands] Old Longbridge building outlines

[Rob Nickerson]

Stuart,

You could try the brand new "attic" data version of Overpass. This lets you
query the OSM database for data AND specify a "as at" date.

For example the following will return a file (save as filename.osm and open
in JOSM) of buildings in OSM in 2012 (within the bbox I have used):

http://overpass-api.de/api/interpreter?data=[date:"2012-01-01T01:00:00Z"][out:xml][timeout:25];(way["building"](52.38901106223456,-2.0073652267456055,52.40524656401494,-1.9664239883422852););out
meta;>;out meta;

You will probably want check the bbox and the date.

Hope this helps,
Rob
