Regional Diffs

Prerequisites

regional-diff.py has been developed on a Debian/jessie GNU/Linux system and depends on the following:

  • osmosis (0.40.1+ds1-7)
  • python (2.7.5-8)

Gettings started

First clone the repository:

$ git clone https://github.com/jkirk/osm-regional-diffs.git

View the help message output:

$ scripts/regional-diff.py --help                                                                                    :(
usage: regional-diff.py [-h] [-v] [-M | -H | -f FILE | --osmfile OSMFILE]
                        [--report | --ids-only | --ql-only | --rss-file RSS_FILE]

Print report of all modified ways and relations from Vorarlberg of the latest minutely or hourly replication diff file from planet.openstreetmap.org (or by a given diff file)

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -v, --verbose         increase verbosity
  -M, --minutely        use minutely diff file from planet.openstreetmap.org
                        (default)
  -H, --hourly          use hourly diff file from planet.openstreetmap.org
  -f FILE, --file FILE  use local osc.gz diff file (instead of downloading the
                        latest diff file from planet.openstreetmap.org)
  --osmfile OSMFILE     use local osm file (from osmosis or overpass API)
  --report              output report to stdout (default)
  --ids-only            output all way and relation IDs from given diff
  --ql-only             output Overpass QL
  --rss-file RSS_FILE   output report as rss file

regional-diff.py by default reports ways and relations with bicylce-tags[1] in Vorarlberg which were modified in the last minute.

As it is very likely that there haven't been any changes in the last minute it might make sense to test regional-diff.py with changes done in the last hour or by providing a diff file. To do so run either:

$ scripts/regional-diff.py --hourly

or

$ scripts/regional-diff.py -f scripts/637.osc.gz

637.osc.gz was downloaded from http://planet.openstreetmap.org/replication/hour/000/015/637.osc.gz which was created on #Wed Jun 25 20:02:07 UTC 2014. This should be the sample output:

The following ways and relations (in Vorarlberg) have been modified in scripts/637.osc.gz

To generate an RSS-file run:

$ scripts/regional-diff.py -f scripts/637.osc.gz --rss-file regional-diff.rss

Put the RSS-file to your htdocs folder and point your favourite RSS-Client to that URL to subscribe that feed.

Please be aware that the RSS-File will be overwriten on every run of regional-diff.py
