NAME
osmium-apply-changes - apply OSM change file(s) to OSM data file
SYNOPSIS
osmium apply-changes [OPTIONS] OSM-DATA-FILE OSM-CHANGE-FILE... osmium apply-changes
[OPTIONS] OSM-HISTORY-FILE OSM-CHANGE-FILE...
DESCRIPTION
Merges the content of all OSM change files and applies those changes to the OSM data or
history file.
Objects in the data or history file must be sorted by type, ID, and version. Objects in
change files need not be sorted, so it doesn’t matter in what order the change files are
given or in what order they contain the data.
Changes can be applied to normal OSM data files or OSM history files with this command.
File formats will be autodetected from the file name suffixes, see the --with-history/-H
option if that doesn’t work.
This commands reads its input file(s) only once and writes its output file in one go so it
can be streamed, ie. it can read from STDIN and write to STDOUT.
OPTIONS
-H, --with-history
Update an OSM history file (instead of a normal OSM data file). Both input and
output must be history files. This option is usually not necessary, because
history files will be detected from their file name suffixes, but if this detection
doesn’t work, you can force this mode with this option. Can not be used together
with the --locations-on-ways option.
--locations-on-ways
Input has and output should have node locations on ways. Can be used to update
files created by the osmium-add-locations-to-ways. See there for details on the
format. Can not be used together with the --with-history/-H option.
--redact
Redact (patch) history files. Change files can contain any version of any object
which will replace that version of that object from the input. This allows
changing the history! This mode is for special use only, for instance to remove
copyrighted or private data.
-r, --remove-deleted
Deprecated. Remove deleted objects from the output. This is now the default if
your input file is a normal OSM data file (`.osm').
-s, --simplify
Deprecated. Only write the last version of any object to the output. This is now
the default if your input file is a normal OSM data file (`.osm').
COMMON OPTIONS
-h, --help
Show usage help.
-v, --verbose
Set verbose mode. The program will output information about what it is doing to
STDERR.
--progress
Show progress bar. Usually a progress bar is only displayed if STDOUT and STDERR
are detected to be TTY. With this option a progress bar is always shown. Note
that a progress bar will never be shown when reading from STDIN or a pipe.
--no-progress
Do not show progress bar. Usually a progress bar is displayed if STDOUT and STDERR
are detected to be a TTY. With this option the progress bar is suppressed. Note
that a progress bar will never be shown when reading from STDIN or a pipe.
INPUT OPTIONS
-F, --input-format=FORMAT
The format of the OSM-DATA-FILE or OSM-HISTORY-FILE. Can be used to set the input
format if it can’t be autodetected from the file name. See osmium-file-formats(5)
or the libosmium manual for details.
--change-file-format=FORMAT
The format of the OSM-CHANGE-FILE(s). Can be used to set the input format if it
can’t be autodetected from the file name(s). This will set the format for all
change files, there is no way to set the format for some change files only. See
osmium-file-formats(5) or the libosmium manual for details.
OUTPUT OPTIONS
-f, --output-format=FORMAT
The format of the output file. Can be used to set the output file format if it
can’t be autodetected from the output file name. See osmium-file-formats(5) or the
libosmium manual for details.
--fsync
Call fsync after writing the output file to force flushing buffers to disk.
--generator=NAME
The name and version of the program generating the output file. It will be added
to the header of the output file. Default is “osmium/” and the version of osmium.
-o, --output=FILE
Name of the output file. Default is `-' (STDOUT).
-O, --overwrite
Allow an existing output file to be overwritten. Normally osmium will refuse to
write over an existing file.
--output-header=OPTION=VALUE
Add output header option. This command line option can be used multiple times for
different OPTIONs. See the libosmium manual for a list of available header
options. For some commands you can use the special format “OPTION!” (ie. an
exclamation mark after the OPTION and no value set) to set the value to the same as
in the input file.
DIAGNOSTICS
osmium apply-changes exits with exit code
0 if everything went alright,
1 if there was an error processing the data, or
2 if there was a problem with the command line arguments.
MEMORY USAGE
osmium apply-changes keeps the contents of all the change files in main memory. This will
take roughly 10 times as much memory as the files take on disk in .osm.bz2 format.
EXAMPLES
Apply changes in 362.osc.gz to planet file and write result to new.osm.pbf:
osmium apply-changes --output=new.osm.pbf planet.osm.pbf 362.osc.gz
