I would like to see how much Mapillary imagery helps OpenStreetMap. My first attempt at this analysis is here, but it has the serious mistake of not accounting for changesets. I would like to correct that error and look into changesets. As an example, I looked at Lithuania’s GeoFabrik page.
The line I find most relevant:
- .osc.gz files that contain all changes in this region, suitable e.g. for Osmosis updates
The .osc.gz link leads me to:
where state.txt
is:
# original OSM minutely replication sequence number 5572108 timestamp=2023-05-12T20\:21\:24Z sequenceNumber=3693
and 000/
contains the empty directories of 001
and 002
, and the non-empty 003
:
If we download 563.osc.gz
and descompress (curl http://download.geofabrik.de/europe/lithuania-updates/000/003/563.osc.gz -o 563.osc.gz
, then gzip 563.osc.gz --decompress
), we get 563.osc
. First few lines:
Which seems nice. The .txt
files are similar to the one quoted above. To proceed successfully, it seems I need to understand though how these osc.gz
files are structured.
Based on what logic OpenStreetMap edits end up in 563.osc.gz, or another file, ie 564.osc.gz? I am interested in how this path structure is set up, and what changes go to each file.
