Hi all, Here are some hacks I made for wikipedia, kml2osm and all. It could be better, and dont worry about those 10 points I added.
http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/h4ck3rm1k3/diary/7188 So, I found out yesterday that I dont need to parse the whole wikipedia to get the points. http://www.webkuehn.de/hobbys/wikipedia/geokoordinaten/Wikipedia_en_2008-03-12.zip So, now I have split that file by the area of interest. First I parsed out my kosovo boundries file and extracte d the min/max of lat and lon. http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Ejamesmikedupont/%2Bjunk/openstreetmap-wikipedia/revision/2/extract.pl#extract.pl using the openstreetmapkosova/kosovaadmin.osm from my osm branch, also in lp. This produced : LAT Avg 42.3764065194805 cnt 539 Min 41.8534278 Max 43.2723636 size 1.4189358 LON Avg 20.9177833755102 cnt 539 Min 20.0722732 Max 21.8005791 size 1.7283059 I modified those coords, and used my stripkml to extract all the points in that box : http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Ejamesmikedupont/%2Bjunk/openstreetmap-wikipedia/revision/2/stripkml.pl Then I used kml2osm from here http://osmlib.rubyforge.org/ http://rubyforge.org/projects/osmlib/ The modified version is for the wikipedia points only. You need to run it with the exisiting osmlib, i run it in the examples dir. http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Ejamesmikedupont/%2Bjunk/openstreetmap-wikipedia/revision/4/kml2osm Here is the result: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Ejamesmikedupont/%2Bjunk/openstreetmap-wikipedia/revision/4/KosovoWP.osm Here is my changeset, uploaded with josm. http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/1911214 Now I would like to have a way to process the wikipedia data in chunks like this. There should be a way to extract just parts of the zipfile or bz2 file.
