osm2vectortiles/src/import-external/README.md

import-external

The import-external component is responsible for importing all data that is not mapped directly from OSM into the PostGIS database.

Usage

Docker

To use import-external you only need the osm2vectortiles/import-external Docker image, all the data sources are baked into the Docker container already.

You need to run import-external before you import OSM data with import-osm and you only need to run the import once!

docker-compose run import-external

Flow Diagram

import-external takes data from three data sources and imports them into PostGIS.

Seas

The seas.geojson file is derived from OpenStreetMap data and licensed under the ODbL. The file was created by taking place=ocean and place=sea nodes and drawing lines by hand to replace some of the points.
