About:
osm2pgrouting is a command-line tool designed to import OpenStreetMap (OSM) data into a PostgreSQL database with the pgRouting extension. It automatically parses OSM XML files to create a routable network topology, handling node and way relationships. This enables complex geospatial routing analysis directly on real-world road data.
Key Features:
  • Automated OSM XML parsing and database import
  • Automatic generation of routable network topology
  • Supports custom configuration files for mapping OSM tags
  • Integration with PostgreSQL/PostGIS and pgRouting
Use Cases:
  • Building routing engines for navigation and logistics applications
  • Urban planning and transportation network analysis
  • Creating custom map databases for applications requiring offline routing
Alternatives:
  • osrm-extract – OSRM is a high-performance C++ routing engine, whereas osm2pgrouting focuses on preparing data within a PostgreSQL database for flexible SQL-based routing queries.
  • imposm – Imposm is a general-purpose OSM importer for PostGIS, while osm2pgrouting is specialized specifically for pgRouting topology creation.
