When try to download the data of these extensions Qgis won't except the
extensions. If some body knows how download the my study area data
please help me
Hi Subbu,
I don't think this is qgis related.
The plugin just uses other tools to download data from osm-api server.
If I convert your bounding box to decimal degrees:
78.7667 11.4167 10.3667 78.00
I get the following message from the plugin:
Download failed: Download process failed. OpenStreetMap server response:
Bad Request - The maximum bbox size is 0.25, and your request was too
large. Either request a smaller area, or use planet.osm.
It's just that the OSM server does not want to provide al this data via
the osm-api
You can either get small boxes of 0.25x0.25 degrees but it is easier te
get a data set from mirrors like:
http://download.geofabrik.de/osm/asia/
there are a lot of other mirrors for that:

Additionally, you can directly download areas larger than 0.5X0.5
degrees from the xapi interface, explained here:
