Hi, on the Geofabrik download server, we usually split up countries into sub-regions once their single .osm.pbf has gone over a certain size. The aim is to make it easy for people to work with data just for their region, even on lower-spec hardware where it might be difficult to handle huge files.
Every once in a while I check the list of not-yet-split countries and split up the largest of them. The current top of the list is 1. Netherlands 2. California 3. Indonesia 4. Spain 5. Czech Republic 6. Brazil 7. Ontario 8. Norway 9. Austria 10. India Hence the next country I'll split up is the Netherlands, but after that, for the first time ever, a second-level entity (California) will be larger than all not-yet-split countries. So I wonder: 1. is there already a site where someone interested in only a subset of California can download current data and potentially also daily diffs? 2. is there a demand for this? 3. what would be a sensible way to split California - in 58 counties, or maybe just go with SoCal and NorCal for now?
