Download data separately

0

Hi all, when i download a map, it have three kind of shapefiles: points, lines and areas. But, for example, points have different fields: amenity (which is divided into schools, shops, parks, and so on), tourism, etc. I would like to know if is possible to donwload the data separately: directly optain schools points, shops points, and so on. Thanks and best regards.

I'd suggest using Overpass Turbo here There's a "wizard" button at the top of the screen that can help with you with queries.
