utilities for parsing OpenStreetMap PBF files and extracting geographic data

installation

tested on go version go1.9, recommended go1.10, cross-compilation possibly broken in recent versions of go

go1.17 and above

$ go install github.com/missinglink/pbf@latest

below go1.17

$ export GO111MODULE=on
$ go get github.com/missinglink/pbf

disclaimer

this repo contains a bunch of experiments including a monkey-patched parsing library, it should be considered as permanently in development.

please feel free to fork and contribute, at some stage it might reach a level of maturity and stability where it could be published as a more general-purpose tool.

     genmask                  generate a bitmask file by specifying feature tags to match
     genmask-boundaries       generate a bitmask file containing only elements referenced by a boundary:administrative relation

     store-noderefs           store all node refs in leveldb for records matching bitmask
     boundaries               write geojson osm boundary files using a leveldb database as source
     xroads                   compute street intersections
     streets                  export street segments as merged linestrings, encoded in various formats
     noderefs                 count the number of times a nodeid is referenced in file
     index                    index a pbf file and write index to disk
     index-info               display a visual representation of the index file
     find                     random access to pbf
     help, h                  Shows a list of commands or help for one command
