Understanding data gaps and associated files

[jfmartinez4]

Hello, I am having a hard time understanding what areas of the map are represented by which files from AWS, or how to download the correct file for the area I'm missing. There's a large area around Vallejo and Fairfield California, which I cannot identify which parquet file to download from AWS. Thank you.

I downladed the Buildings parquet files and wanted to understand how the buildings were partitioned into the files. Whether it's by latitude and longitude tiles, or if it's another schema.

Dependency with other categories, if any.

Hi @jfmartinez4 - If you just want some data in an area, we recommend using either the Python download tool (https://github.com/OvertureMaps/overturemaps-py/) or the explore site (https://explore.overturemaps.org).

There are ways to find the exact files to download that cover an area of interest, but if the above tools work I'd recommend going that way.
