The command "osmium fileinfo ${path-to-input-osm}" is used to obtain information about an OSM (OpenStreetMap) data file.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "osmium" refers to the Osmium Tool, which is a command-line tool for working with OSM data.
- "fileinfo" is a specific command within Osmium that provides detailed information about an OSM file.
- "${path-to-input-osm}" is a placeholder for the actual file path to the OSM data file you want to analyze. You need to replace it with the correct file path. The OSM file extension is typically ".osm".
When you run this command, Osmium will parse the specified OSM file and display various information about it. This can include details such as the OSM format version, number of nodes, ways, and relations, timestamps, OSM headers, and statistics about tags, geometries, and other data present in the file.
