I am trying to download a small section of airport hangars into my scenery in X-Plane 10. The beginners instructions say to make sure there are buildings in the area you want to download. I do not see buildings, only roads and streets. I am very IT impaired, but is there a way to show the buildings I want to download? QUESTION 2: I am following the instructions in the quickstart section of the tutorial. When osm.map appears in the lower left and I transfer it to OSM2xp it doesn't build. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I have also been to other tutorials and viewed forums that address osm. Thnanks to anyone who could help me. Prcu |

...if there are no buildings yet in the area (see @SomeoneElse 's comment), maybe there will be some nice people willing to trace those airport buildings for you. OpenStreetMap is a volunteer project. If nobody has yet drawn the buildings for your area of interest, they are simply not in the database. For a quick introduction on how to add stuff to the OSM database see http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Beginners%27_guide and especially http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Potlatch/Primer . And be bold, it's not as hard as you may think! 1
I'm not sure if I'm in the right place to answer, but thanks to all who responded to my question about the missing buildings. I get it! And thanks for the links so I can learn. prcu

Could you add a permalink to the area that you're interested in? There's a "permalink" option at the bottom-right of the main OSM standard map.
