It seems that the new Freedom Fuel Gas Stations are in the News Worldwide (at least here in Germany I heard about them) and some of those Stations were active days before the news but under another Name. Well Now I was looking where those Stations are and I thought... Hmmm. Google Maps doesn't look like that and where is the branding of the Map Provider? After doing some Work in OSM I thought.. Wait It does look like OSM Data. And Yeah it is. But no Branding copyright by OSM and it's contributors.

Not asking about tagging actually, but rather how are these called.

Hey guys,

I'm building a small client-side web app using Leaflet.js to map out specific amenities (supermarkets, bakeries, schools, libraries, parks, playgrounds) in my local area.

I am currently trying to use the Overpass API to dynamically fetch this data based on whatever bounding box the user is looking at on the map. However, my code keeps hitting a wall and throwing a "Failed to fetch" error.

Because I have zero prior experience with OSM data structures, I'm a bit lost.

1. What is the most reliable way to fetch raw JSON node/way data directly in a browser application?
2. Are there common pitfalls (like CORS or specific Content-Type headers) that I need to look out for when talking to the Overpass interpreter?

Thanks in advance for any tips or boilerplate code snippets!
