Retrieve closest road when given (lat, long) using OSM in Postgres with Postgis using SQL query - sql

Question

Given a set (lat, long) I am trying to find the maximum speed using "max_speed" and street type using "highway".
I have loaded my database (Postgres and Postgis) as follows:
$ osm2pgsql -c -d gis --slim -C 50000 /var/lib/postgresql/data/germany-latest.osm.pbf
The closest related question I could find was How to query all shops around a certain longitude/latitude using osm-postgis?. I have taken the query, and plugged in a (lat, long) that I found in google maps for the city center of Munich (as the post was also related to city center Munich and I have the map for Germany). The result turns up empty.
gis=# SELECT name, shop FROM planet_osm_point WHERE ST_DWithin(way ,ST_SetSrid(ST_Point(48.137969, 11.573829), 900913), 100);
name | shop
------+------
(0 rows)
Also when looking into the planet_osm_nodes, which contains (lat, long) pairs directly, I end up with no results:
gis=# SELECT * FROM planet_osm_nodes WHERE ((lat BETWEEN 470000000 AND 490000000) AND (lon BETWEEN 100000000 AND 120000000)) LIMIT 10;
id | lat | lon | tags
----+-----+-----+------
(0 rows)
I verified the data is in my database:
gis=# SELECT COUNT(*) FROM planet_osm_point;
count
---------
9924531
(1 row)
and
gis=# SELECT COUNT(*) FROM planet_osm_nodes;
count
-----------
288597897
(1 row)
So ideally, my question would be
Q: How can I find the "max speed" and "highway" given a set (lat, lon)
alternatively, my questions is:
Q: How do I get the query from the other stack overflow post to work?
My best guess is that I need to transform my (lat, lon) in some way, or that I simply have the wrong data for whatever reason.
Edit: added sample data as requested:
gis=# SELECT * FROM planet_osm_point LIMIT 1;

Edit 2: There was a mention regarding "SRID", so I added example data from another table:
gis=# SELECT * FROM spatial_ref_sys LIMIT 1;
srid | auth_name | auth_srid | srtext

Answer 1

Geometry in PostGIS has a different ordering of (lat long) first is going longitude then latitude.
Also if you want to transform a point from one SRID to another use st_transfrom(), not ST_SetSrid.
ST_Transform relly transform your data from one coordinates system to another.
select st_astext(st_transform(ST_SetSrid(ST_Point(11.573829,48.137969), 4326),900913))
ST_SetSrid - just change SRID for the object.
select st_astext((ST_SetSrid(ST_Point(11.573829,48.137969),900913)
So, you have to change your SQL that way
SELECT name, shop
FROM planet_osm_point
WHERE ST_DWithin(way,st_transform(ST_SetSrid(ST_Point(11.573829,48.137969), 4326),900913), 100);
