I put up an Overpass query to get some insights for my area. It turned out to be only a few buildings, which I can happily ignore. Not sure about those cases, where they cross a motorway, though... See for yourself in your area: http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/bpP Rather than looking at the whole planet at once, I'd recommend to start out with a somewhat smaller bbox. This query runs on a Overpass Lab preview (read: beta) version with some real hard disks underneath. So be prepared for some potential issues here and there ;) Kind regards, mmd _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
