How do you get OSM to display cafes or restaurants?
- rakoo 10y agoDepending on who you talk to, OSM means 2 different things: - For people involved or passionate in the project, OSM is the database. All information is stored there and is available for consumption - For people outside of the project, OSM is the website displaying the rendered map. As with all rendering, some information is lost, some is put in front. If you want this information, you can use the overpass API (https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Overpass_API); https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Overpass_API); at higher volumes you may want to get extracts of the db and query it directly, or use a custom renderer to have your own beautiful map with the data you want. Unfortunately there is no way to make the OSM website display specific information on a case-by-case basis.
