One can search withing relations like this:
But this does only work for boundary relations because they are preprocessed by the overpass api. How to search within other relations like this one: https://www.openstreetmap.org/relation/3734750 asked 22 May '14, 22:36  Ogmios |
One Answer:
The relation you mentioned doesn't match any of the existing extraction rules, that's why you won't get any result when querying with this relation id. A similar requirement to relax this restriction is currently on the Overpass API "Enhancement Suggestions" list. Please see https://github.com/drolbr/Overpass-API/issues/77 for more details. For the time being you could set up your own Overpass API instance and adjust areas.osm3s to suit your needs. However, to get this up and running might require some significant time and effort depending on your prior experience. answered 26 May '14, 18:49  mmd |
