The Seattle bounding box covers not just Seattle, but also Everett, Olympia, Victoria, and many other areas.

I suggest the bounding box of left=-122.48 bottom=47.41 right=-122.16 top=47.79

This is Seattle, but also includes up to the King County north border, the I 405, and the airport.

Thanks Paul! The intent of the Metro Extracts project is to cover a generous surrounding area for each metro, since there might be a variety of possible use cases ranging from single-city analysis to whole-area basemapping.

While you're paying attention, we just introduced an on-demand feature to make it easier and faster get custom extracts of places all over the world! Give it a try!

We are still testing it with people and would love it if you could give us your feedback by participating in a short usability study for the new experience. Let us know! You can also send us your feedback anytime at [email protected]

Thanks!

If you want to include Greater Seattle, left=-122.6 bottom=47.1 right=-121.7 top=48.1 covers it, Marysville, Tacoma, Bellevue, Redmond, Sammish, and goes up past North Bend.

The current box includes Centralia, Aberdeen, and Mount Vernon.
