I am trying to extract all the amenities inside a bounding box for different segments, I don't want to download them from the server every single time. Instead, I just want to download a general area and then if you select a specific street or segment show all the amenities in it. I'm trying to build a python program where you specify two nodes (coordinates) and print out the amenities in that route. Could you help please? |

There are naturally many ways to achieve what you want, but a typical approach would be to import the POIs (extracted from a OSM planet dump) in a suitable format in to a database. You could either add a street reference to the POI before import, or use a geo-spatially enabled database (for example postgres with postgis) to on the fly determine which POIs to show based on their location. |
