SYNOPSIS

10       osmium --version
11

DESCRIPTION

13       Multipurpose tool for working with OpenStreetMap data.
14
15       Run  osmium help COMMAND to get more information about a command.  This
16       will only work on Linux and OS/X systems and only if the man command is
17       available and working correctly.

COMMON OPTIONS

80       Most commands support the following options:
81
82       -h, --help
83              Show short usage information.
84
85       -v, --verbose
86              Set  verbose  mode.   The  program will output information about
87              what it is doing to STDERR.
88

MEMORY USAGE

90       Osmium commands try to do their work as memory efficient  as  possible.
91       But  some  osmium  commands still need to load quite a bit of data into
92       main memory.  In some cases this means that only smaller  datasets  can
93       be  handled.   Look  into  the man pages for the individual commands to
94       learn more about their memory use.
95
96       On most commands, if you use the --verbose/-v option, osmium will print
97       out  the  peak  memory  usage at the end.  This is the actual amount of
98       memory used including the program code itself,  any  needed  libraries,
99       and the data.  (Printing of memory usage is currently only available on
100       Linux systems.)
101
102       If an osmium command exits with an “Out of memory” error,  try  running
103       it with --verbose/-v on smaller datasets to get an idea how much memory
104       it needs.
105
106       On Linux a program that uses a lot of memory can be killed by the  ker‐
107       nel without the program being notified.  If you see osmium dieing with‐
108       out any apparent reason, this might be the case.  Search on the  Inter‐
109       net for “OOM killer” to find out more about this.
