- cmcconomy 2y agoI think another option to consider would be running your own overpass server with a local copy of the data subsets you want, then using something like python's osmnx to do "native" queries.
- wcedmisten 2y agoosmnx looks like a cool library, I haven't seen that one before! As for self hosting overpass, I have considered it, but the installation steps seemed a bit tedious to me compared to a lot of tools which are dockerized.
- stigaard 2y agoWhats your take on protomaps?
- wcedmisten 2y agoI'm a big fan! I use it for most of my OSM projects. It's pretty easy to download an OSM extract and process it into base tiles. Protomaps also provides a free set of base tiles that you can download and rehost yourself if you don't want to process the data locally.
