Support bounding box areas #5

Closed maxerickson closed 6 years ago

The first iteration of the UI could just be an input box for an Overpass-API style bbox string.

Could also have a map widget for drawing one.

This would be an escape hatch for people that get confused about the relation or can't find a suitable relation.

That would be neat. My front end skills are minimal. A map widget would take an outsized amount of time for me to make, but I welcome a PR!

A bbox would be easier to do. perhaps paste an OSM map URL and derive bbox from that the way JOSM does?

Work on this is now ongoing at https://github.com/mvexel/meetyourmappers/tree/bbox but for me to be able to test I need to resolve https://github.com/osmcode/pyosmium/issues/70 ...

mvexel commented 6 years ago

The upstream issue was resolved and I now have working (but not properly tested) code on the bbox branch.

I'll deploy this when I get a chance.
