@Irelephant at least .osm files can be loaded in , but if your extract is big enough (say, a city or bigger), it might clog it, since it will try to render _everything_. It's mostly aimed at loading changesets, not whole areas.

After that, it seems like you can convert the pbf into a SQLite/Spatialite DB and load it in , but you're already transforming the data.

EDIT: yay! Federation works! (Answered from Mastodon :)

Yeah, the fediverse is amazing. I’ve had cases where I answered a lemmy thread without even realizing it was on lemmy ;)

@pietervdvn @mdione If you're replying to a reply it sometimes helps to add @openstreetmap to the toot to make sure it gets propagated properly by lemmy.

(although probably not this time as I'm replying to a lemmy.ml account)
