[Xapi] node has wrong coordinates

0

Hi,

When I look on www.openstreetmap.org/node/30658698, the node coordinates are Location: 36.7762244, -2.0629709

But when I get the node through xapi, I receive this: <node id="30658698" lat="36.7763260" lon="-2.0624340" version="1" timestamp="2007-06-20T00:31:08Z" changeset="104149" uid="4623" user="Quico"> <tag k="created_by" v="almien_coastlines mod"/> <tag k="source" v="PGS"/> </node>

The coordinates are different and it results in a self-crossing way...

Any ideas why ?

Which XAPI were you using? Whichever one it was I suspect that it has not been updated in at least 10 months!

You'll need to raise the problem with whoever looks after http://api.openstreetmap.fr/xapi (I had no idea that it even existed).

Try one of the other options at https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Xapi .

If anyone has the same problem: The way containing this node is marked with timestamp="2014-10-24T22:10:42Z" which would mean that the way is up to date but not its nodes... Interesting
