The overpass turbo webservice is a quick & easy way to download objects from OSM which match the desired criteria (e.g. all terminal buildings in europe) | |||
http://overpass-turbo.eu/ | |||
== osmconvert == | |||
wind turbines and power pylons are mot of the time easy to handle nodes in OSM. But petrol stations or churches are often ways - not as easy to handle. | |||
The tool osmconvert can convert ways (outline of a building or an area) into nodes(lat/lon points with tags) | |||
Example: | |||
osmconvert input.osm --all-to-nodes | grep -v "<node .*/>" > out.osm | |||
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmconvert | |||
From the resulting .osm file it is very easy to generate a .stg file for test in flightgear (with some fixed dummy elevation) and then upload to | |||
http://scenemodels.flightgear.org (correct elevation will be calculated on the the server side) | |||
(with a script similar to this one: [[User:Laserman/gpx2stg.py]] ) | |||
