CLI tools to help with the localisation of OpenStreetMap. Edit name:LANG and name keys, always supervised by the user. See Multilingual names for the OpenStreetMap rules and best practices.

Requirements

This tool requires the python3 interpreter. You can find it here: https://www.python.org/downloads/

Installation

Download the code and run this command inside the folder

pip3 install .

Usage

Execute the commands

  • fill_empty_name: looks for features with name:LANG & without name tags and copy name:LANG value to name.
  • fill_empty_name_lang: looks for features with name & without name:LANG tags and copy name value to name:LANG.
  • regex_name_lang: look for features with name matching a regular expression and fill name:LANG with a modified version of name by a regular expression.
  • translate_with_wikidata: add name:LANG selecting the label or alias from wikidata.
  • fill_wikidata_from_wikipedia: add wikidata from wikipedia tag.

All commands accept the following flags:

  • --verbose: print the changeset tags and all the tags of the features that you are currently editing.
  • --dry-run: run the program without saving any change to OSM. Useful for testing. No login required, ignores --username.
  • --help: show documentation with all the available options.

You will be asked for necessary options if they are not passed to the command call (--area, --lang, --username).

You can define the search area by the coordinates of the bounding box in the following format (South,West,North,East), overpass filters or by the exact name value of a feature with area.
