Overpass API on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
Azure
Applications
a read only query server for OpenStreetMap data
Overview
Overpass API answers questions about OpenStreetMap. You send it a query written in Overpass QL and it returns exactly the map objects you asked for: every pharmacy in a bounding box, every cycle path in a city, every building carrying a given tag, or the members of a relation, as JSON, XML or CSV. It is the engine behind Overpass Turbo and much of the tooling built on OpenStreetMap. Running your own instance removes the per address quotas that make the shared public instances unsuitable for production use.
Why the cloudimg image
The cloudimg image answers real queries the moment it boots: an OpenStreetMap extract is already imported with full metadata on a dedicated data volume, complete with a generated area index, so there is nothing to download or build first. Overpass has no login of its own, so the image bounds the surface instead of inventing one: the query engine is reachable only from the machine itself, the database coordinators open no network port at all, and the single network facing service terminates TLS with a certificate generated on your own instance at first boot, rate limits per client, and serves an explicit endpoint allowlist. Query memory and time limits are set for the instance size rather than left at server scale defaults. The base is fully patched and paired with a deployment guide covering loading your own region and keeping it current, and every image is backed by 24/7 cloudimg support.
Common uses
- Query OpenStreetMap at volume without a public instance's rate limits
- Feed geospatial applications, routing and site selection with live map data
- Extract tagged features for analysis, research and data pipelines
