OSMIUM-DERIVE-CHANGES(1) OSMIUM-DERIVE-CHANGES(1) NAME osmium-derive-changes - create OSM change files from two OSM data files SYNOPSIS osmium derive-changes [OPTIONS] OSM-FILE1 OSM-FILE2 DESCRIPTION Finds differences between two OSM files and creates a change file with those differences. The resulting change file is created in a way, that it could be applied on OSM-FILE1 to re-create OSM-FILE2. Objects in both input files must be sorted by type, ID, and version. The first input file must be from a point in time before the second in- put file. Only object type, id, and version are compared, so this program will not detect differences in, say, the tags, unless the object has a new version, which is the normal way things work in OSM. If you need to compare all data in OSM files, have a look at the osmium diff program. For this command to create a proper change file you have to set the --output option or --output-format option in a way that it will gener- ate an .osc file, typically by using something like `-o out.osc.gz'. You can create any other OSM file format, but that is usually not what you want. Osmium derive-changes will warn you in this case. Note that for objects that are in OSM-FILE1 but not OSM-FILE2 a "deleted" entry will be created in the output. But because we can not know when this deletion actually occurred, in which changeset, and by which user, it is unclear what attributes this deleted object should have. Also, if you are working with extracts, the object might not ac- tually have been deleted in the OSM database, but just moved out of the extract you are looking at. So a real, new, "deleted" version was never created. Usually the "deleted" object will get the same version number and timestamp as the object in OSM-FILE1 had, all other informa- tion will be removed. But you can change this using the --incre- ment-version, --keep-details, and --update-timestamp options. Depend- ing on which software you are using the change files with, different settings might be necessary. This commands reads its input files 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 --increment-version Increment version number of deleted objects. --keep-details Keep details of deleted objects. Usually only id, version, and timestamp are kept. If this option is set all attributes, all tags, and all nodes or members for ways and relations, respec- tively, are kept. --update-timestamp Update timestamp of deleted objects to the current time. This is the same behaviour as Osmosis. 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 STDOUT and STDERR are detected to be 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 STDOUT and STDERR are 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-for- mats(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 os- mium will refuse to write over an existing file. --output-header=OPTION=VALUE Add output header option. This command line option can be used multiple times for different OPTIONs. See the osmium-out- put-headers(5) man page for a list of available header options. For some commands you can use the special format "OPTION!" (ie. an exclamation mark after the OPTION and no value set) to set the value to the same as in the input file. DIAGNOSTICS osmium derive-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. MEMORY USAGE osmium derive-changes doesn't keep a lot of data in memory.
