[OSM-talk] extracts of OSM

2009-01-18 Thread David Bannon
Hi Folks, some advice please ?

I am interested in getting some OSM data covering the north of the North
Island of NZ, some where I am visiting shortly. However, there is not
extract available and its too big to pull down from the OSM website.

Seems my only choice is to pull down the while planet, and at 5 G thats
not really a choice when I am on the road

Any suggestions ?

David
