You can use the Osmium tool (http://osmcode.org/osmium) to extract any point in time from a full history dump (http://planet.osm.org/planet/experimental/). Then use the usual tools (osmosis etc.) to extract the area you want. Instead of starting with the full history dump you can start with one of these extracts: http://osm.personalwerk.de/full-history-extracts/ Another approach uses the history renderer. Might be better if you need several points on time or want to do a video or so: https://github.com/MaZderMind/osm-history-renderer/blob/master/TUTORIAL.md Jochen -- Jochen Topf joc...@remote.org http://www.jochentopf.com/ +49-721-388298 _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
