[OSM-dev] osm2pgsql: avoid addition to planet_osm_point when importing ways?

[Nick Whitelegg]

OK thanks for that, will have a play. I think I thought the style file was just for selecting which attributes were added as database columns rather than selecting which objects were added.

What are you using for a .style file? That’s what tells osm2pgsql what import where. You should be able to write one that doesn’t involve any points.

Hi,

I want to import some highways into a PostGIS database but encounter a problem when any constituent nodes with tags are added to planet_osm_point.

Is there a way to tell osm2pgsql to *only* import the ways into planet_osm_line and not put anything into planet_osm_point at all?

None of the command line options seem to suggest that you can do this, unless I've missed something.

Thanks,
Nick
