Optimized OpenStreetMap data for Libya - Ready to use geographical data

# Libya OpenStreetMap Data Fetcher

This project fetches geographical data for Libya from OpenStreetMap using the Overpass API and saves it in JSON format.

## Features

The script fetches the following data types:
- Cities and towns
- Roads and highways
- Buildings
- Administrative boundaries
- Amenities (points of interest)

## Setup

1. Install the required packages:
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

2. Run the script:
```bash
python fetch_libya_data.py
```

## Output

The script will create a `data` directory containing separate JSON files for each feature type:
- `libya_cities.json`
- `libya_roads.json`
- `libya_buildings.json`
- `libya_administrative.json`
- `libya_amenities.json`

## Note

- The script includes a delay between requests to respect the Overpass API's rate limits
- Some queries might take a few minutes to complete due to the amount of data
- The data is saved in raw OSM JSON format
