Geometry by layer
- Roads — lines (LineString) with OpenStreetMap tags
- Water — waterbody polygons and watercourse lines with tags
- Greenery — green-zone polygons with tags

How to use OSM XML for Codor
- JOSM — File -> Open, pick the .osm: the layer opens as an ordinary selection, and objects and tags can be browsed and filtered.
- QGIS (free) — Layer -> Add Vector Layer -> .osm: the GDAL driver sorts the data into points, lines and polygons by itself.
- osm2pgsql — import into PostGIS with a single command for further analytics with SQL queries over tags.

FAQ: OSM XML for Codor
Can I upload this file back into OpenStreetMap?
Not recommended. Nodes and ways carry negative ids (a non-uploaded-data marker), and the selection may lag behind the live database. For editing, pull fresh data directly through JOSM.
How does OSM XML differ from OSM PBF?
OSM XML is text: human-readable, handy for viewing and small extracts. PBF is binary: many times more compact and faster, better for whole countries. All OSM tools understand both formats.
Are relations and multipolygons preserved?
The export is built from flat layers: points, lines, and closed ways. Complex OSM relations (multipolygons with holes, routes) are not reconstructed in this export — for those use a direct OSM extract or PBF.
Can I open the result in QGIS?
Yes, through the GDAL OSM driver: Layer → Add Vector Layer → pick the .osm file. GDAL splits the data into points, lines, and polygons.
Are the original OSM object identifiers preserved?
No. Nodes and ways get their own negative numbers — the accepted OSM mark for data that is not in the database. If you need real ids, take an export straight from OSM or the Overpass JSON format.
