osmf

README

A small tool for playing around with osm databases (those resulting from osm2pgsql). Read SETUP_DATABASE.md to learn how to set up the required database.

Note that osm2pgsql by default does not put all available tags into the database and osmf only deals with this limited tag-set.

Installation

git clone git@github.com:codesoap/osmf.git
cd osmf
go install
# The binary is now at ~/go/bin/osmf.

If you don't want to install the go compiler, you can download binaries from the latest release page.
