Overview
This project contains useful info/tools for processing OSM maps into the mapwriter file format (.map). It was developed to help generating offline map files for Locus on Android.
Dependencies / Prereqs
To run this program you'll need the following
- A Linux environment
- Python 3.x installed
- Java 1.8 or higher installed (OpenJDK works)
- wget installed
- bunzip2 installed (usually part of bzip2 package)
Installation
Head over to releases tab and download the latest. Extract the file and you're good to go. Everything is self-contained minus the above dependencies.
Running
To run the program, cd to the directory where you extracted the release and run './process_maps.py' with at least one '--map-list /path/to/list.txt parameter'. See the lists directory for examples on how to format the map list files.
Program Usage
usage: process_maps.py [-h] [--map-list MAP_LIST] [--no-sleep] [--use-ram]
[--max-heap-space MAX_HEAP_SPACE]
[--output-map-name OUTPUT_MAP_NAME]
[--cached-maps-dir CACHED_MAPS_DIR]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--map-list MAP_LIST a text file with one map URL per line, can be
specified more than once
--no-sleep don't sleep between downloads -- WARNING you can
easily run into throttling on mirrors if you use this
option
--use-ram use RAM for mapsforge processing -- WARNING mapsforge
uses 10x the map size in RAM for processing (ie. 100Mb
map = 1Gb RAM usage), you want a LOT of RAM for this
option
--max-heap-space MAX_HEAP_SPACE
set the max heap space for the JVM, use standard -Xmx
values, default (4g) should be fine if not using
--use-ram argument
--output-map-name OUTPUT_MAP_NAME
set the output .map and .poi file names
--cached-maps-dir CACHED_MAPS_DIR
Use cached maps in the specified directory instead of
downloads using map lists
