`download-osm -make-dc` to use a `.poly` file for BBOX

Open zstadler opened this issue 5 years ago • 0 comments

The BBOX created by download-osm -make-dc using pbf-based statistics is larger that the bounding box of the polygon used to create the extract. In a relatively small area the bbox was 18-20 times larger.

Geofabrik - 18x

Source West South East North Area
Polygon 34.079 29.377 35.915 33.351 7.296
PBF statistics 25.149 22.000 36.900 33.484 134.943

OpenStreetMap.fr - 20x

Source West South East North Area
Polygon 34.050 29.435 35.915 33.355 7.311
PBF statistics 25.149 22.000 36.900 34.686 149.073

It would be nice if make-dc will use the bounding box of the extraction polygon by default, and use the statistics-based bounding box only if it cannot be found. Currently poligon files are available from Geofabrik.de, OpenStreetMap.fr, and bbbike.org
