Helper

Helper methods are available to provide easy access to often used requests.

import overpy.helper

# 3600062594 is the OSM id of Chemnitz and is the bounding box for the request
street = overpy.helper.get_street(
    "Straße der Nationen",
    "3600062594"
)

# this finds an intersection between Straße der Nationen and Carolastraße in Chemnitz
intersection = overpy.helper.get_intersection(
    "Straße der Nationen",
