I am looking into switching our apps mapping platform away from google maps. After a bit of trail and error, I was able to get a somewhat working example. I however have run into a deal breaking scenario. The scenario I have is this. Given a users current location, find me all of the POI's in their area based on a specific amenity or cuisine type. Ideally I would like to use the current users lat/lng to determine where they are and then do a radius search based on this. The question I have is, how do I pass the current users lat/lng into the Overpass api? The only thing I can see is that I can set a bounding box. This is the current (non working) query that I am using <osm-script output="json" timeout="25"> <union> <query type="node"> <has-kv k="cuisine" v="coffee_shop"/> <around radius="1000"/> <bbox-query {{bbox}}=""/> </query> </union> <print mode="body"/> <recurse type="down"/> <print mode="skeleton" order="quadtile"/> </osm-script> |

The Overpass API does actually support this directly in the around statement: Or see this example. |
