Maybe your best bet is to use a PostGIS database and osm2pgsql, which
takes
a .osm file and populates a PostGIS database. The only issue is
postgis can
be a bit of a pain to set up, but if there are pre-built packages for
your
platform it's a *lot* easier. Are you on windows? I'm guessing
there's a
prebuilt postgis for windows.
Ah Very good! Yes, I am primarily on Windows, however certainly can
setup something in a Linux environment, though I am going to need pretty
good instructions. How does this PostGIS DB best run., I mean, in terms
of a Linux distribution? What do you have? :-)
