The next best thing that could happen... is to have osm2pgsql (and maybe similar other tools like imposm) to take advantage of augmented diffs produced by overpass-API.
These augmented diffs have 2 benefits: - they are created thru your own query (so you can get them for any area, like the bbox of your choice) - they are greatly self-contained*, making most of the awful slim tables** not required anymore We simply need someone to implement their support... I expected to have a student doing that this summer, but it will not be the case. This is on top of my "OSM dev wish list": https://cquest.hackpad.com/OSM-dev-wish-list-3OhxQgDuiEK * they contain ways related to modified nodes, as well as nodes related to ways... making the planet_osm_ways table useless for updated ** as a reminder: osm2pgsql "slim" tables... they take 250GB of space on a planet database, where you have around 150-200GB of useful point/line/roads/polygon data. 2014-07-03 17:11 GMT+02:00 Sachin Dole <sd...@genvega.com>: > thanks sly, that was good info for me. and thanks Ilya for asking the > question. > > > On Thu, Jul 3, 2014 at 10:01 AM, sly (sylvain letuffe) <lis...@letuffe.org > > wrote: > >> On jeudi 3 juillet 2014, Ilya Zverev wrote: >> >> > If, with comments above, this >> >> > script is still not the best way to have regional minutely updates, >> >> > please point me to an alternative. >> >> >> >> I wasn't saying that what you did is or isn't the best way ("best" beeing >> relative to a need) to have regional diffs, I was just pointing out, for >> you, or for anyone with a need of "subregional diffs" who might not know, >> that there exists those 2 alternatives I pointed out. >> >> >> >> -- >> >> sly, direct contact : sylv...@letuffe.org >> >> http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/User:Sletuffe >> >> _______________________________________________ >> dev mailing list >> dev@openstreetmap.org >> https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev >> >> > > > -- > President | Genvega Inc. | www.genvega.com | tel: 630.290.2561 > > _______________________________________________ > dev mailing list > dev@openstreetmap.org > https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev > > -- Christian Quest - OpenStreetMap France
