OSM XML 🗺

OpenStreetMap XML (.osm)

Open Beta
.osm · application/x-openstreetmap+xml

OSM XML is the native text format of OpenStreetMap, holding nodes, ways, and relations with tags since 2004. It is human-readable, opens in Notepad, and parses with any XML parser, and in the OSM world every tool understands it: JOSM, osmium, osm2pgsql, GDAL. Our exporter assembles a valid OSM API 0.6 document from the selected OSM layers: points become node elements, lines become way elements, polygons become closed ways (first node equals last), and tags carry over as key-value pairs. The file is UTF-8; multiple layers are packed into a ZIP. Honestly: we assign negative ids to nodes and ways — a marker for «data not from the live database» — so the file is handy for viewing in JOSM, importing into PostGIS, and converting through GDAL, but is not meant for uploading straight back into OSM.

Põhiomadused

OSM API 0.6 structure: node, way, closed ways for polygons
Tags carry over as key-value pairs with their original OSM keys — colons preserved (addr:street, building:levels)
Negative ids — a marker for non-uploaded data
UTF-8 encoding understood by every OSM tool
Single layer — a .osm file, multiple layers — a ZIP archive

Vormingu OSM XML kohta

OSM XML is OpenStreetMap's own text format: nodes, ways and their tags written as ordinary XML following the OSM API 0.6 schema. The file is human-readable, opens in a notepad, is parsed by any XML parser, and in the OSM world every tool understands it — JOSM, osmium, osm2pgsql, GDAL.

The format is chosen when you need the objects themselves with their tags rather than a picture: to look at a selection in JOSM, to load an area into PostGIS for analytics, to run it through your own script or convert it into any other format — OSM XML is the universal go-between for that.

The exporter assembles a document of the same structure: points become node elements, lines become ways, polygons become closed ways (the first node matches the last), and tags are carried over as key-value pairs. The encoding is UTF-8; one layer means an .osm file, several layers mean a ZIP archive. Identifiers are issued by us and are negative: that is the accepted OSM marker for "data not in the database yet". The original OSM object numbers are therefore not preserved, and complex relations — multipolygons with holes and routes — are not recreated in a flat export.

Kes kasutab OSM XML-kaarte

🏗
Viewing and checking an OSM selection in the JOSM editor
The selection opens in JOSM and is checked by eye: objects, tags, geometry.
💻
Importing data into PostGIS via osm2pgsql for analytics
The area is loaded into PostGIS through osm2pgsql and then analysed with SQL queries.
📊
Converting to any format through GDAL (ogr2ogr) or osmium
The file is converted into any format you need through ogr2ogr or osmium — every tool in the ecosystem understands OSM XML.
🎨
Archiving and sharing a small extract in a human-readable form
A small fragment is convenient to hand over or put aside in an archive in human-readable form.
