How to get point of interest near my point using overpass-api?


I am using Overpass API.

I have an issue to find some points of interest (cafes, hospitals, schools) near (around in 100-200 miles) my point. I have only latitude and longitude.

Overpass API gives opportunity to get POIs using your place name. But I don't have it. I have only coordinates.

How can I do that ?


Solution

  • Use the around statement!

    <query type="node">
      <around lat="..." lon="..." radius="..."/>
      <has-kv k="amenity" v="cafe" />
    </query>
    <print />
    

    Try this example on overpass turbo!
