Yes RoR is one of the key technologies used for the OSM website, but then we also use PHP(mediawiki), Javascript(OpenLayers), Flash(Potlatch) and probably several more too. > Is it possible > to get a local installation of the website, Yes http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/The_Rails_Port > if not of all the > data? You can not get _all_ the data (some user details remain private). You can download all of the map data which comes as a 5GB compressed file. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Planet.osm For normal purposes I recommend you work with a one of the smaller data extracts listed on this page (unless you have lots of computing resources and a need to process the entire data set).
