Hi all, I am trying to get the roadname for a specifi road. For this I use an xapi query with the bounding box set as small as just a point on a road (as retrieved from google maps). http://open.mapquestapi.com/xapi/api/0.6/way[highway=*][bbox=5.405231,51.466303,5.405231,51.466303] While the bounding box is on a road called N2 the result is also containing a road called A2 which is next to it. Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong here? Thanks in advance asked 05 May '13, 01:22  JLambregs |
This is a static archive of our old OpenStreetMap Help Site.

you even have a third way ... a cycleway!
Maybe that the mapquest API is rounding the coordinates so a bigger bbox is the result?
Have you tried do that query at https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Overpass_API ?
Please note also that the Mapquest API got stuck with old data from even before the license change. Maybe this is also an old and already busted bug.
