Greetings all -
I've written a tool to offset the element IDs of nodes, ways and
relations in an OSM xml file. I've coded it as a Python module and I've
also done a verison in C where more speed is required. The C version is
coded using a finite state machine to make it very efficient. Both
implementations are stream based and will handle files of arbitrary size
with trivial memory usage. I've tested it with v5 and v6 of the API, and
with 64bit IDs.
I wrote the tool for my own use - I need it in order to merge files
converted from multiple different shapefile sources that don't have
unique IDs; but is this of any use to the community? Is this the right
group to ask?
Happy to post the source code somewhere and release it fully unencumbered.
Krgds, Martin
