NAME
       osmcoastline_filter - filter coastline data from OSM file


SYNOPSIS
       osmcoastline_filter --output=OUTPUT_FILE INPUT-FILE

       osmcoastline_filter --help


DESCRIPTION
       osmcoastline_filter  is  used to filter all nodes and ways needed for building the coastlines from an OSM
       planet.  The data is written to the output file in PBF format.

       This output file will be a lot smaller (less than 1%) than the original  planet  file,  but  it  contains
       everything needed to assemble the coastline polygons.

       If  you  are  playing  around  or  want  to run osmcoastline several times with different parameters, run
       osmcoastline_filter once first and use its output as the input for osmcoastline.

       osmcoastline_filter can read PBF and XML files, but write only PBF files.  PBF files are much smaller and
       faster to read and  write  than  XML  files.   The  output  file  will  first  contain  all  ways  tagged
       "natural=coastline",  then  all  nodes  used  for  those ways (and all nodes tagged "natural=coastline").
       Having the ways first and the nodes later in the file is unusual for OSM files, but the osmcoastline  and
       osmcoastline_ways programs work fine with it.
