Honest OSM to GeoJSON Converter

honest-osmtogeojson is a python package that converts large (≳ 100 MB) OSM data represented in (XML format) into a GeoJSON data represented in (JSON), inspired by the JavaScript module osmtogeojson.

• UNDER-DEVELEOPMENT.
• real OSM polygon detection.
• can convert the entire OSM data in one go << this's the actual reason behind building this package :).
• works with extra large data 100 MB, 1 GB, 10GB, or 50GB, without exhausting the machine resources.

Differences from the JavaScript Module osmtogeojson:

• server-sided usage only, this is a python package it won't work on browser :).
• GeoJSON feature's flat properties by convention, it will be simply a list of { "key": "value" } pairs instead of the unnecessary structured JSON object overhead.
• a whole different algorithm to process the anomalies of converting OSM data into GeoJSON, this package will try to avoid duplicated data as much as possible, I'll go through this further in the follow up sections.

$ pip install honest-osmtogeojson
