OverScry Introduction

🔍 The magic lens for Overpass queries
OverScry is a tool designed to simplify the process of generating Overpass queries from a YML structure file. By taking a structured YML input that defines specific geographical data and search parameters, OverScry automatically converts it into a valid Overpass query. Overall it makes it easier for both beginners and experts to leverage Overpass API capabilities without needing to understand how to write complex raw queries.

Installation
Installing the tool can currently only be done via Go and Docker.
Go
