Introducing osmprj
· 7 min read
I'm excited to announce the alpha release of a new tool for managing OpenStreetMap (OSM) data with PostgreSQL: osmprj. This tool aims to reduce the hassle of working with OSM data in PostgreSQL by providing workflows similar to modern package managers like uv, Cargo, npm or pixi It's built on top of the tried and true osm2pgsql utility and utilizes the brand new osm2pgsql-themepark framework that offers an endless posibility of schema layouts for your OSM data.
In this post, I give you an overview of how this tool works, some background on how/why I created it and what I wish to accomplish in the future, including some ideas I have for contributing back to osm2pgsql-themepark.
