But since I already use osm2pgsql and since I'd like to maintain only
one database, it would be nice to attach Java XAPI to it.
The databases are not compatible, it's not possible to run both tools on
a single database.
Well... in "slim" mode, osm2pgsql already tracks all nodes and the
relationships between nodes, ways, and relations; it just does so in a
different way (using array columns instead of link tables). That part of
the "osm2pgsql schema" is not fundamentally different from the
"pgsnapshot schema";
osm2pgsql throws away all objects that don't have the right tags if you
don't use the hstore features and it don't store way-node and
relation-member information if you don't use slim-mode.
In general osm2pgsql is targeted at generating a smaller database that
fits exactly on rendering a style - not for serving an xapi-like query
service - although the one or the other might be tricked into working
with the other, they're not made for each other.
