About

This is an experimental API server for Open Street Map map data.

  • The server supports most of the read operations on map data defined by version 0.6 of the OSM API (see SupportedRequests for the precise list).
  • For its data store, the server currently uses Membase, a scalable distributed key/value store. Support for other scalable key/value stores should be easy to add.
  • The server has been designed to be easy to scale out horizontally.
