osm2pgsql - applications/utils/export/osm2pgsql
Maintainer: Jon Burgess
Synopsis: Converts from OSM XML to PostgreSQL (PostGIS) SQL. More efficient than Slippy_Map#python_script.
Use:
See also Mapnik#Loading_Data
# ./osm2pgsql osm-data.osm > pgsql-out.sql
Handling compressed data (useful for planet.osm dumps)
# gzip -dc planet-061112-a.osm.gz | ./osm2pgsql - | gzip -c > planet-061112-a.sql.gz
Details:
See the slippy map page for more details about importing the into PostgreSQL.
This script is written in C and must be compiled before use. It relies on the libxml2 library to parse the XML. You may have to install the development headers for this library before the code will compile.
On Fedora Linux:
# yum install libxml2-devel
On Unix like systems, the code can be compiled by using the command:
# make
from within the directory contained the C source file. The compiled executable file is called:
./osm2pgsql
osmapitest

Maintainer - Nick B
Synopsis: - Contains various tests for the OSM API
Details - OSMTESTAPI is the beginnings of a set of Ruby classes that test the OSM API, by simulating common use cases. The script was written to test API 0.4 and will be useful for people wanting to populate test their home implementations of OSM, or perhaps for people developing client apps.
