Some time ago there was this announcement in this mailing list "Peter Körner has built and uploaded a recent version (0.80.0 32bit id space) of osm2pgsql to http://osm4windows.org/downloads/ " I have tried that version with Windows Vista 32-bit and it works. It takes much less memory than the year 2010 build, it reads .pbf format and it is faster (about 2 hours with finland.osm.pbf now vs. two and a half hours with finland.osm.bz2 with the previous). GDAL is still faster with my weak machine with dual core 1.2 GHz processor and 2 GB of memory and does the import into PosGIS in 30 minutes. Import into Spatialite takes only 10 minutes. Numbers are not exact because in my test osm2pgsql and GDAL schemas were not identical. -Jukka Rahkonen- _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
