Open Street Map: convert pbf to xml

Here's an example on how the open street map parser can be used to create xml files. Please excuse the wide source...

import sys import time import OSMpbfParser def xml_escape(s_): s_=s_.replace ("&", "&" ) s_=s_.replace ("<", "<" ) s_=s_.replace (">", ">" ) s_=s_.replace ('"', '"') return s_ def callback_node(node): stamp=time.strftime("%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ",time.gmtime(node.time)) if len(node.Tags)>0: fh.write(' \n' % (node.NodeID, node.version, stamp, node.uid, xml_escape(node.user), node.changeset, node.Lat, node.Lon)) for t in node.Tags.keys(): fh.write(' \n' % (t, xml_escape(node.Tags[t]))) fh.write(' \n') else: fh.write(' \n' % (node.NodeID, node.version, stamp, node.uid, xml_escape(node.user), node.changeset, node.Lat, node.Lon)) def callback_way(way): stamp=time.strftime("%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ",time.gmtime(way.time)) fh.write(' \n' % (way.WayID, way.version, stamp, way.uid, xml_escape(way.user), way.changeset)) for n in way.Nds: fh.write(' \n' % (n)) for t in way.Tags.keys(): fh.write(' \n' % (t,xml_escape(way.Tags[t]))) fh.write(' \n') def callback_relation(relation): stamp=time.strftime("%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ",time.gmtime(relation.time)) fh.write(' \n' % (relation.RelID, relation.version, stamp, relation.uid, xml_escape(relation.user), relation.changeset)) for m in relation.Members: fh.write(' \n' % (m.type, m.ref, xml_escape(m.role))) for t in relation.Tags.keys(): fh.write(' \n' % (t,xml_escape(relation.Tags[t]))) fh.write(' \n') # First argument is *.pbf file name pbf_filename = sys.argv[1] # Second (optional) argument is output file if len(sys.argv) > 2: fh = open(sys.argv[2], 'w') else: fh = sys.stdout fh.write('\n') fh.write('\n') OSMpbfParser.go(pbf_filename, callback_node, callback_way, callback_relation) fh.write('\n') fh.close()

This script takes one mandatory and an optional argument. The mandatory argument specifies the pbf file. If the optional parameter is given, it specifies the name of the xml file into which the output is written, otherwise, the output goes to stdout:

c:\> pbf2xml.py liechtenstein-latest.osm.pbf liechtenstein.xml
