I've setup my PostGreSQL database with PostGis correctly, including the various parameter tweaks. I setup PostGreSQL on a separate Windows Server 2008 box with 8GB RAM, in order to separate processes and not have osm2pgsql have missing memory issues. This box has plenty of space for the final database. I setup a virtual box on our virtualization server using a CentOS distribution, obtained osm2pgsql from source, turned on the 64bit compilation flags and compiled it. This virtual box has 16GB memory. osm2pgsql doesn't have any code to check for memory allocation failures and to deal with it in a sane way, it just assumes all allocations are fine until it checks the nodes when going over pending ways etc. Anthony posted a patch a couple of months back, I didn't hear if the patch was added to the svn version(s). ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev

However, I see that changing the symbolic link before updating the state file is a flawed idea anyway. You misunderstood me, I didn't say anything took 5 minutes, nor that the memory state file would be any where near 85 bytes, Osmosis does a lot of the merging in memory to be able to come back to a point close in time you would need to dump the memory contents frequently, every 5 minutes or perhaps more often if you care more about that sort of thing.

I have some code here that tried to use 27700 but that is not defined on all inhabited continents of this planet. An error of at most 25% would be acceptable as tis is just about search -areas and not street-length. If you generate an area that you want to cover, then all you need to do is use ST_Within() function I think it is. ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev

Use which ever function works best for you, I was just making a suggest that didn't need distance calculations. Both the creation of the bounding-box and the distance -calculation require a projection. That's simple, if you are already generating such projections you can make a bounding square and create a new area and then use a function to find anything that falls partially within that area. ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
Re: [OSM-dev] projection for calculating distances in PostGIS
to make an area you would do something like this. mid point = S25, E45 radius = 5km From there you can easily approximate small bounding box by doing something like this: top lat = midpoint - (radius / 100) left lon = midpoint - (radius / 100) bottom lat = midpoint + (radius / 100) right lon = midpoint + (radius / 100) ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
