NAME
       osmium-add-locations-to-ways - add node locations to ways in OSM file


SYNOPSIS
       osmium add-locations-to-ways [OPTIONS] OSM-FILE...


DESCRIPTION
       Usually  only  nodes have locations and the ways refer to those locations via the IDs of the nodes.  This
       program will copy the input file(s) to the output, taking the locations from the nodes and adding them to
       the ways.  This makes it easier for other programs to assemble the way geometries.

       The  input  file  must  contain all nodes needed for the ways, otherwise there will be an error.  You can
       change this behaviour using the --ignore-missing-nodes option.

       Nodes without any tags will not be copied (unless the --keep-untagged-nodes, -n  option  is  used).   The
       size  of  the  output  file  will  be  similar  or  a  bit  smaller  than  the  input  file  (unless  the
       --keep-untagged-nodes, -n option is used in which case it will be a lot bigger).

       Note that the OSM files generated by this command use a non-standard format extension.

       The osmium add-locations-to-ways command has to keep an index of the node locations in  memory  or  in  a
       temporary  file on disk while doing its work.  There are several different ways it can do that which have
       different advantages and disadvantages.  The  default  is  good  enough  for  most  cases,  but  see  the
       osmium-index-types(5) man page for details.

       If  the  --keep-untagged-nodes,  -n option is used, files created by this command can be updated with the
       apply-changes command using the --locations-on-ways option.

       This command will not work on full history files.

       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
       -i, --index-type=TYPE
              Set the index type.  For details see the osmium-index-types(5) man page.

       -I, --show-index-types
              Shows a list of available index types.  For details see the osmium-index-types(5) man page.

       -n, --keep-untagged-nodes
              Keep the untagged nodes in the output file.

       --ignore-missing-nodes
              If  this  is  not set a missing node needed for a way results in an error.  If this is set, errors
              are ignored and the way will have an invalid location set for the missing node.


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 STDERR is detected to  be  a  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 STDERR is 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 input 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 input files, there is no way to set the
              format for some input 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
              Add output header option.  This option can be given several times.  See the libosmium manual for a
              list of allowed header options.


DIAGNOSTICS
       osmium add-locations-to-ways 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 add-locations-to-ways will usually keep all node locations in memory.  For larger data files, this
       can need several tens of GBytes of memory.  See the osmium-index-types(5) man page for details.


EXAMPLES
       Add node locations to an extract keeping all nodes:

              osmium add-locations-to-ways -n -o germany-low.osm.pbf germany.osm.pbf

       Add node locations to a planet file (without untagged nodes):

              osmium add-locations-to-ways -i dense_mmap_array -o planet-low.osm.pbf planet.osm.pbf
