NAME

osmosis - command line OpenStreetMap data processor

SYNOPSIS

osmosis [ --command command parameters ... ] ...

DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the osmosis command.

This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

osmosis is a command line Java application for processing OSM data. The tool consists of pluggable components that can be chained to perform a larger operation. For example, it has components for reading/writing databases and files, deriving/applying changes to data sources, and sorting data, (etc.). It has been written to easily add new features without re-writing common tasks such as file and database handling.

Some examples of the things it can currently do are:

• Generate planet dumps from a database

• Load planet dumps into a database

• Produce change sets using database history tables

• Apply change sets to a local database

• Compare two planet dump files and produce a change set

• Re-sort the data contained in planet dump files

• Extract data inside a bounding box or polygon

OPTIONS

The commands and arguments accepted by osmosis are described in details and shown in examples in the page https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmosis and its subpages.

BUGS
