     17== Source server and server download options ==
    1818By default there is only one source, the main OSM server. If [ExpertMode expert mode] is enabled then you have access to download data from Overpass API. (More servers may be added in the future.) Each server has its own special download options, which are explained below.
    1919
    2020=== Download from OSM ===
     21[[Image(SlippyMap.png,800)]]
     22
    2123This is the default download method. Different types of data can be downloaded (it is possible to download all three types at once):

    2931
    3032=== Download from Overpass API ===

    3436
    3537== Area to download ==
     
    3941
    4042=== Slippy map ===
    41 [[Image(download_dialog.2.png,300px,right)]]
     43(see screenshots above)[[BR]]
    4244The ''Slippy map'' provides a movable map like on the OSM front page with which you can interactively select the area to download. Move the map the JOSM way by press and hold the right mouse button and select an area by press and hold the left mouse button.

    4648=== Bookmarks ===
     49[[Image(Bookmarks.png,400)]]
     50
    4751In the ''Bookmarks'' tab you can select from your predefined bookmarks, or create a new bookmark from the current bounding box (bbox) or the area defined in another tab respectively.
    4852
     
    5458
    5559=== Bounding Box ===
     60[[Image(BBox.png,400)]]
     61
    5662In the ''Bounding Box'' tab you can set the latitude/longitude bounds of the data to be downloaded, and also paste an URL from either www.openstreetmap.org or www.informationfreeway.org.
    5763* To paste from [osmwww: the map] on the OpenStreetMap site, zoom into the area you are interested in and copy the URL from the address bar of your browser. Then go to JOSM, and paste this URL into the "URL from www.openstreetmap.org" box. (In Windows to paste into the box, left click on the box, and then do CTRL+v).
     
    6167
    6268=== Area around places ===
     69[[Image(AreaAroundPlaces.png,400)]]
     70
    6371On the ''Area around places'' tab you can search for specific places, street names, etc, in the OSM database. Currently, there is only one server for the search available: [osmwiki:Nominatim Nominatim]. After you have clicked on a search result you can switch back to the Slippy map tab (which has zoomed to the area of the search result) and adjust the bounding box.
    6472
    6573=== Tile Numbers ===
     74[[Image(TileNumbers.png,400)]]
     75
    6676In the ''Tile Numbers'' tab you can enter a number of tiles and a zoom level to download data of those tiles. Alternatively, you enter a Tile address. This might look a little awkward, especially when reading [osmwiki:Slippy_map_tilenames how to compute the tile numbers]. But sometimes it comes in handy. If you want to easily determine the tile numbers with the mouse, see [https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/40163/tile-browser-link-broken this help center question].
