This program does that. There are two stages of +processing required. The first stage is to calculate what area each tile +should cover, based on the distribution of nodes. The second stage writes +out the nodes, ways and relations from the original .osm file into separate +smaller .osm files, one for each area that was calculated in stage one. +EOF |
