15. Appendix: osm2pgrouting Import Tool

osm2pgrouting is a command line tool that allows to import OpenStreetMap data into a pgRouting database. It builds the routing network topology automatically and creates tables for feature types and road classes.

注釈

There are some limitations, especially regarding the network size. The way to handle large data sets is to current version of osm2pgrouting needs to load all data into memory, which makes it fast but also requires a lot or memory for large datasets. An alternative tool to osm2pgrouting without the network size limitation is osm2po (http://osm2po.de). It’s available under 「Freeware License」.

Raw OpenStreetMap data contains much more features and information than needed for routing. Also the format is not suitable for pgRouting out-of-the-box. An .osm XML file consists of three major feature types:

  • nodes
  • ways
  • relations

mapconfig.xml

When using osm2pgrouting, we take only nodes and ways of types and classes specified in a mapconfig.xml file that will be imported into the routing database:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
  <type name="highway" id="1">
    <class name="motorway" id="101" />
    <class name="motorway_link" id="102" />
    <class name="motorway_junction" id="103" />
    ...
    <class name="road" id="100" />
  </type>    
  <type name="junction" id="4">
    <class name="roundabout" id="401" />
  </type>  
</configuration>

The default mapconfig.xml is installed in /usr/share/osm2pgrouting/.

  • osm2pgrouting creates more tables and imports more attributes than we will use in this workshop.
