NAME

       osmpbf-outline - outline the content of an .osm.pbf or .osh.pbf file

SYNOPSIS

       osmpbf-outline [ --color ] filename

DESCRIPTION

       osmpbf-outline  generates a colored outline of an .osm.pbf or .osh.pbf file, revealing its
       inner structure.  It does not decode all information nor does it  check  for  of  possible
       mistakes,  but  it  will  warn  on some bad mistakes one can make when generating .osm.pbf
       files.

       This tool can be used by authors  of  .osm.pbf  readers  and  writers  and  is  useful  to
       understand the inner blob/block structure of .osm.pbf files.

       Its  source  code  is  heavily  documented  and  can  be  used  as  a  good starting point
       understanding on how to read and write .osm.pbf files with C++.

OPTIONS

       -c, --color
            usually colorization is disabled when writing to a file descriptor that is not a  tty
            (eg. when the output is piped to a file or to a pager like more or less). Some pagers
            can handle ANSI color code ( more can, less can when invoked as less -R ). To enforce
            colorization when working with such pagers, specify the --color flag.

EXAMPLES

       osmpbf-outline germany.osm.pbf
