* 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]
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
```
