csv2osm

Convert a csv table with geographical information to osm format. This script supports coordinate system transformations and it can create a way joining all nodes in the csv file. This is useful to import polygons described in the law into OSM.

Dependencies:

• Python 3
• pyproj (sudo apt-get install python3-pyproj on Debian/Ubuntu)

Usage

If your csv file is reasonably well formatted and requires no coordinate system transformation, then ./csv2osm.py CSV_FILE.csv OSM_FILE.osm should do the trick. If you need more info, type ./csv2osm.py -h.

usage: csv2osm.py [-h] [-x FIELD_NAME] [-y FIELD_NAME] [-l LOCALE]
	      [--proj4 PROJ4_STRING] [--sirgas2000 ZONE] [--sad69 ZONE]
	      [--way]
	      [infile] [outfile]

Convert csv spreadsheets to osm format.

positional arguments:
  infile                Input csv file
  outfile               Output osm file

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -x FIELD_NAME, --lon FIELD_NAME
		    Name of the longitude/easting field
  -y FIELD_NAME, --lat FIELD_NAME
		    Name of the latitude/northing field
  -l LOCALE, --locale LOCALE
		    Locale used to convert coordinate fields to float
  --proj4 PROJ4_STRING  Input coordinate system, given as a proj4 string
  --sirgas2000 ZONE     Set input coordinate system to SIRGAS2000 in the given
		    UTM zone
  --sad69 ZONE          Set input coordinate system to SAD69 in the given UTM
		    zone. Use the special value 'll' for
		    longitude/latitude coordinates.
  --way                 Create a way joining all nodes
