Query Data

There are many sources of query data for use with Ultra.

OpenStreetMap

Ultra was initially made to visualize OSM data via Overpass queries. OSM continues to be an excellent source of data for Ultra, and can be consumed in more ways than one.

Overpass

OverpassQL or Overpass XML queries are supported by the overpass query provider.

Ohsome

The ohsome API can be used via the ohsome query provider to loader quanties of OSM data with a simpler filtering syntax than Overpass.

Bunting Labs

Using separate N/S/E/W bbox placeholders, the geojson provider can load data from the Bunting Labs API

OSM API

The osmxml and osmjson providers can load data directly from the OSM API.

Tiles

There are a variety of providers of tiled OSM data.

OpenStreetMap US Tileserver

Née the OSM Americana Community Vector Tile Server, OSM US hosts OpenMapTiles on tile.ourmap.us. For usage, see their policy.
