Overview
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.
