Using Osmosis to extract a map from a larger pbf file using a bounding box

1.4k views Asked by At

I have a large data set of lats and lons. mplleaflet was overwhelmed. After determining my BBox, OpenStreetMap yielded a "too many nodes..." error. And recomened planet.osm. Based on posted advice, I down loaded a state from Geofabrik.org, and then installed Java and Osmosis in effort to extract my area from the xxx.osm.pbf file from Geofabrik. I think it's ready to go, but although Osmosis https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Bounding_Box makes it sound easy to extract what I need, the example doesn't make any sense. I have a bounding box. The closest example I find on the Osmosis site is here: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmosis#Example_usage. I can't understand how this relates to the xx.osm.pbf file or what the "use CONIN$ instead" is referring to. Any help is much appreciated. Seems this will be fun once I'm able to do it.
