Hi there, I'm currently playing on a random access tool for compressed osm files.
While my tool works fine for all files from http://download.geofabrik.de/osm/europe/, I've problems with the latest planet file. While all files from geofabrik are only single bz2 streams it seems that the planet consists of several independant streams that have many "end of stream" in the middle of the bz2 file. After recompressing the planet with bzcat planet-latest.osm.bz2 |bzip2 >planet-recoded.osm.bz2 I can read the created planet-recoded with my script now. Does anyone know what is in the planet? Which tool is used to compress the planet?
