<div dir="ltr">Hi All,<br><br>I've just committed a revised version of the "OSB" file format.<br><br>This one allows to "load" huge OSM map with relatively low and constant memory footprint by reading the data from disk as needed.<br>
I've just tested loading all of Belgium on my WinCE in about 5mb :-)<br><br>The format subdivides the world in regions of about 50km and then further in tiles of about 1km which are loaded as required.<br><br>Don't expect the format to be stable, as performances needs to be tuned.<br>
<br>The next step will be to be able to download the whole planet with one file per region, with the choices of regions to download.<br><br>Regards<br>- Chris -<br></div>
