NAME

       osmium-apply-changes - apply OSM change file(s) to OSM data file

SYNOPSIS

       osmium apply-changes [OPTIONS] OSM-DATA-FILE OSM-CHANGE-FILE...

DESCRIPTION

       Merges the content of all OSM change files and applies those changes to the OSM data file.

       Objects  in  change files will be sorted by type, ID, and version, so it doesn't matter in
       what order the change files are given or in what order they contain the data.

       osmium apply-changes keeps the contents of the change files in main memory,  so  the  data
       has to fit in there!

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.

       -F, --input-format=FORMAT
              The  format of the input files.  Can be used to set the input format if it can't be
              autodetected from the file names.  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.

       --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).

       --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.

       -O, --overwrite
              Allow an existing output file to be overwritten.  Normally osmium  will  refuse  to
              write over an existing file.

       --fsync
              Call fsync after writing the output file to force the OS to flush buffers to disk.

       -r, --remove-deleted
              Remove  deleted  objects from the output.  If this is not set, deleted objects will
              be in the output with the visible flag set to false.

       -s, --simplify
              Only write the last version of any object to the output.

       -v, --verbose
              Set verbose mode.  The program will output information about what it  is  doing  to
              stderr.

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.

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
