I need to build a database of a subset of features from a specific area,
storing them in a series of tables according to feature type (eg. natural,
historic, waterway, ...) from predefined subsets of the planet file.
In doing this I hope to minimise:
1 my impact on OSM's resources
2 amount of data I have to download (I'm in Australia so I'm burdened with 20GB
monthly traffic limits).
My current thinking is that I need to:
1. download the weekly England, Scotland& Wales excerpts from geofabrik
2. merge the 3 files
Why not use the "Great Britain" extract from Geofabrik. It includes all
of England, Scotland and Wales, so you won't need to download them
separately then merge them.
