The Osmium FAQ distinguishes the old Osmium library, developed from 2010 to 2013, from the C++11-based rewrite that began in 2013; osmium-tool is built on that newer libosmium stack. The repository credits Jochen Topf as writer and maintainer and carries copyright years beginning in 2013. Its architecture follows libosmium's file-format and data-model abstractions. The manual describes the `osmium` command as a Git-like dispatcher with subcommands, while the website emphasizes a broad feature set ranging from file info and format conversion to history-file extraction and changeset filtering. ### Adoptionsgeschichte osmium-tool became a standard utility for OSM data operators because it covers many routine jobs without requiring custom C++ code. The project site lists packages for Debian/Ubuntu, Fedora, Homebrew, and conda-forge, and the manual notes support and regular testing across Linux, macOS, and Windows. In the OSM tooling timeline, Osmium also became the recommended alternative for some Osmosis users as Osmosis moved into light maintenance. That adoption pattern reflects a broader shift from Java pipeline tooling toward libosmium-backed C++ tools for high-volume file processing. ### Wie es verwendet wird Operators use osmium-tool to inspect extract metadata, convert between XML, PBF, O5M/O5C, OPL, and debug formats, build geographic extracts from bounding boxes or polygons, verify references in partial extracts, work with OSM history and change files, and chain these tasks inside shell scripts. Its verbose mode, safety checks against overwriting output, and support for all major OSM file formats make it a pragmatic package for repeatable data jobs: download an extract, inspect headers, filter or cut the data, and feed the result into renderers, importers, or analysis systems. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren For package nerds, osmium-tool is the visible CLI layer of a carefully separated stack: protozero for PBF encoding support, libosmium as a header-only C++ OSM library, and osmium-tool as the packaged executable suite. It is a good example of a domain library being exposed through a durable multipurpose command. ### Related projects - libosmium provides the underlying C++ OSM data handling. PyOsmium exposes parts of that ecosystem to Python. Osmosis, osmfilter, and osrm-backend occupy nearby OSM data-processing and routing roles. ### Quellen - - - - - ## Sicherheitshinweise narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger-Risiko:** grün / niedrig - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Andere Paketmanager-Einträge - Debian apt - osmium-tool - 1.18.0-1: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: osmium-tool from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | Command line tool for working with OpenStreetMap data | https://osmcode.org/osmium-tool/ - Nix - osmium-tool: normalized package name match | nixpkgs package indexes: pkgs/by-name/os/osmium-tool/package.nix from https://api.github.com/repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - Ubuntu apt - osmium-tool - 1.16.0-1build1: normalized package name match | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS package indexes: osmium-tool from https://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/noble/universe/binary-amd64/Packages.gz | Command line tool for working with OpenStreetMap data | https://osmcode.org/osmium-tool/ - dnf - osmium-tool - 1.19.1-2.fc45: normalized package name match | Fedora Rawhide package metadata: osmium-tool from https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/x86_64/os/repodata/07190dc5ae9f35ae73866675fed6d95fe6e8d9fe22c9d7cdf85862cb2ed24a4c-primary.xml.zst | Command line tool for working with OpenStreetMap data | http://osmcode.org/osmium-tool/ - MacPorts - osmium-tool: normalized package name match | MacPorts ports tree: gis/osmium-tool/Portfile from https://api.github.com/repos/macports/macports-ports/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - Nix - osmium: installed executable or alias match | nixpkgs package indexes: pkgs/by-name/os/osmium/package.nix from https://api.github.com/repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/git/trees/master?recursive=1 ## Combined YAML source View the package source record on GitHub.
