  --exact_lookup        Exact lookup for hashtags to match exact hashtag supllied , without this
                        hashtag search will search for the existence of text on hashtags and comments
  --changeset           Include hashtag and country informations on the stats. It forces script to
                        process changeset replciation , Careful to use this since changeset replication
                        is minutely according to your internet speed and cpu cores
  --all_tags            Extract statistics of all of the unique tags and its count
  --temp                Deletes downloaded osm files from machine after processing is done , if you

  --boundary BOUNDARY   Boundary geojson file path to filter stats, see data/example_boudnary for
                        format of geojson
  --update              Update the old dataset produced by osmsg , Very Experimental : There should be
                        your name stats.csv and summary.csv in place where command is run

It is a python package that processes osm files live and produces stats on the fly

1. It can Generate Stats on Country Level for countries based on geofabrik urls . Countries are available in here
2. It can also take any other server replication changefile to extract stats (Tested with Geofabrik and Planet Replication)
3. Can Generate hashtag statistics
4. Supports multiple output formats , Visualize Automatic Stats Being Genarated here
5. It can create summary charts automatically along with stats , Visualize them here
6. Can generate stats for any custom timestamp provided

{"name":"username","uid":uid,"changesets":1,"nodes.create":1071,"nodes.modify":2100,"nodes.delete":0,"ways.create":146,"ways.modify":69,"ways.delete":0,"relations.create":0,"relations.modify":1,"relations.delete":0,"building.create":138,"building.modify":11,"building.delete":0,"highway.create":5,"highway.modify":49,"highway.delete":0,"waterway.create":0,"waterway.modify":4,"waterway.delete":0,"amenity.create":0,"amenity.modify":3,"amenity.delete":0,"landuse.create":3,"landuse.modify":1,"landuse.delete":0,"natural.create":0,"natural.modify":3,"natural.delete":0,"total_map_changes":3387}

Start Right Away :

• Extract Stat of last hour and visualize stats/charts

  By default replication is minute url.

osmsg --last_hour

• With Hashtags information

osmsg --last_hour --changeset

• Last week data with summary & all tags info and using day replication

osmsg --last_week --url day --summary --all_tags

More Example Commands

• To extract stats of last_hour for whole_world Using Planet Replication with specific tags

osmsg --url "https://planet.openstreetmap.org/replication/minute" --format csv --tags building highway waterway amenity --name stats --all_tags --last_hour

In order to extract for specific country just add --country with country name as in data/countries.csv for eg : For Nepal : --country Nepal

• To extract stats for last day whole world with all the tags and specified stat :

  You can either pass url "https://planet.openstreetmap.org/replication/day" itself or if you want to use planet default replciation url you can simply pass as : minute , day & hour , script will get url itself

osmsg  --url day --format csv --last_day --name stats --all_tags

If you wish to have tags with specific count for key you can include them as --tags "building" "highway" & add --country to extract specific country , if you use geofabrik country updates you don't need to use --country option

• To extract specific country with Geofabrik URL (extracts stats for 15 days custom date range)

export OSM_USERNAME="yourusername"
export OSM_PASSWORD="yourpassword"

osmsg  --url "http://download.geofabrik.de/asia/nepal-updates" --format csv --start_date "2023-01-15 00:00:00+00:00" --end_date "2023-01-30 00:00:00+00:00" --name all_tags_stats --all_tags

• To get stat of country for year with geofabrik replication:

  Example of nepal for year of 2022

  Processing geofabrik country based osm change files are faster as they will have changes only for country and smaller in size , or you can pass --country parameter and pass id from data/countries.csv

osmsg --start_date "2022-01-01 00:00:00+00:00" --url "http://download.geofabrik.de/asia/nepal-updates" --username 'your osm username' --password 'user osm password' --tags 'building' 'highway' 'waterway' 'amenity'  --format csv

• To extract on-going mapathons statistics

  Example of extract last 8 days of data for Turkey and Syria using hashtag smforst with geofabrik as source --summary will allow to divide and provide stats as summary sepearated by daily , You can use this to get both summary csv and user contribution csv !

osmsg --country turkey syria --username "OSM USERNAME" --password "OSM PASSWORD" --hashtags smforst --length highway --force --days 6 --tags building highway amenity waterway --all_tags --summary

• Extract mapathon stats for hashtag only

  You can use --length to get length of created features , supported for way features along with count

osmsg --url minute --hashtags mymapathonhashtag1 hashtag2 --length highway --force --tags building highway amenity waterway --all_tags --summary --start_date "2023-01-15 00:00:00+00:00" --end_date "2023-01-15 11:59:00+00:00"

Or you can simply say --last_day like this , can use hour replication to avoid processing too many files

osmsg --url hour --hashtags mymapathonhashtag1 hashtag2 --length highway --force --tags building highway amenity waterway --all_tags --summary --last_day

Check more commands examples inside stats/ stats_metadata.json

Now start generating stats with above sample commands

TIPS & Tricks of using OSMSG:

OSMSG uses/supports sources , --url provided on argument will be used for osm changefiles and for changeset it is default of planet replication/minute ( used for hashtag and country )

1. To process weekly / monthly or yearly stats , Using minute replication might take forever on small machines , You can use daily replication files /replication/day to process faster and avoid network download issues for small minute fiels

2. If you are generating stats for rightnow / past 10min / past 1 hour using specific timeframe , stick with minutely (Sometimes to reflect changes you made on stats , Planet may take few minutes)

3. For hashtag stats , planet changeset minute replication is by default for now (Found only this reliable source , couldn't find daily/monthly replication files) , Generating daily/weekly is feasible , To generate more than that you can supply multiple countries geofabrik urls so that script can go through only country changefiles as stated on example above for turkey and syria , similarly you can pass your countries url and generate monthly yearly etc or you can run osmsg one time for a year it will download and store osm files , and next time when you run it would avoid downloading and it can generate stats quicker

4. For Country stats , if you use the --country option : You can also pass country name id supported from data/countries.csv and it supports multiple countries at a time if supplied , Name would be automatically translated to available geofabrik URL or You can pass your own URL eg :

osmsg --url "http://download.geofabrik.de/asia/nepal-updates" --username '${{ secrets.OSM_USERNAME }}' --password '${{ secrets.OSM_PASSWORD }}' --format csv --last_month --tags 'building' 'highway' 'waterway' 'amenity' --name last_month_stats  --all_tags

5. It is recommended use same dir for running osmsg because osmsg stores downloaded osm files to temp dir and it can be reused next time you run stats on same period , avoids downloading all again, for eg : I run some stats for #hashtag1 for last month , and i want to run again for #hashtag2 , osmsg will use same downloaded files and avoid downloading for second time if you use the same dir for running

Benchmarks :

Speed depends upon no of cores available on your CPU and your internet speed Generally on Normal i5 machine To process a year of data for country like Nepal it takes approx 3min .

OSM LOGIN info

OSM Username and Password are not Mandatory , They are only required if you want to use geofabrik internal changefiles , There are two options you can either pass your username password on command line or export those in your env variable and script will pick it from there so that you don't need to pass your username and password to command itself like this.

export OSM_USERNAME="yourusername"
export OSM_PASSWORD="yourpassword"

Now use command as it is without username and password , OSM Login is enabled from Geofabrik itself So OSMSG Doesn't uses any third party tool/methododology for the authentication
