If you do wish to automate osmosis diff application, you can use this script, adapt it to your bounding box and trigger it from cron: http://www.bretth.com/myanmar/replicate_osm_file.sh
Installation instructions for the script are here. It will need to be adapted for your area because the script is currently used for Myanmar data. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/OnDemandTileServer#Myanmar_Data_Replication I have the script being run at 40 minutes past the hour, then at 45 minutes past the hour I import the resultant file into the mapnik database. This keeps the following slippy map with Myanmar data within 2 hours of the main API. http://www.bretth.com/world_map/ Frederik Ramm wrote: > Don't. > > If you wanted to do what you say, you'd have to use Osmosis to apply the > diff to your downloaded XML file, then cut out the affected area again > because applying the diff (which is for the whole planet) will also > create new objects everywhere on the planet.
