The osmium show
command is used in operating systems like Linux to display certain information about an OpenStreetMap (OSM) file. Here's an explanation of each part of the command:
-
osmium
: This is the executable command used to interact with Osmium, a C++ library for working with OSM data. It provides various tools for reading, manipulating, and writing OSM files. -
show
: This is one of the subcommands of theosmium
command. It is specifically used to display information about an OSM file. -
${path-to-input-osm}
: This is a placeholder for the actual path to the input OSM file you want to show information for. You need to replace${path-to-input-osm}
with the correct file path or filename (including the file extension, typically.osm
). This tells the command where to find the OSM file to operate on.
In summary, the osmium show
command is used with the appropriate file path to display information about an OSM file. The specific type of information shown depends on the subcommand options and flags used along with it.
