|

I'm not sure if this is just me or a problem with the site but I can't get the downloads to work. The first one worked fine but since then all I get is timeout type responses. Is it working for everyone else?
Thanks

OK, a bit more info. The problem appears to be related to the size of the category. The smaller ones are working bit if I select the 'Food & Drink' category (the most important one ) and create a single output file it doesn't work. Am I just expecting too much, it does have over 19,000 POIS?
TIA

It's a known issue when trying to combine many sub-categories into a single POI file.
Try downloading them in chunks of 20 sub-categories, and then merge them using POIEdit or similar. |
