One approach Assuming you're using the overpass turbo wizard, you will not get any kind of bounding box information in your Overpass API result. Although this is not really documented, a feature called [global bounding box][1] might come in handy in your case: it will add that bounding box detail to use a your response you didn't get so called global bbox, far. Simply add `[bbox:{{bbox}}]` to your query like shown demonstrated in the following query: http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/bC5 This will add your bbox selection Bounding box details are now automatically added to the Overpass response with 4 digits precision: response: "bounds": { "minlat": 41.8926, "minlon": 12.4936, "maxlat": 41.8932, "maxlon": 12.4953 }, If you're using XML output mode instead, Overpass API will produce a slightly different format: <bounds minlat="41.8912" minlon="12.4922" maxlat="41.8954" maxlon="12.499"/> [1]: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Overpass_API/Overpass_QL#Global_bounding_box_.28bbox.29

One approach is to use a so called global bbox, like shown in the following query: http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/bC5 This will add the your bbox selection to the Overpass response with 4 digits precision: "bounds": { "minlat": 41.8926, "minlon": 12.4936, "maxlat": 41.8932, "maxlon": 12.4953 }, If you're using XML output mode instead, Overpass API will produce a slightly different format: <bounds minlat="41.8912" minlon="12.4922" maxlat="41.8954" maxlon="12.499"/>
