[osmosis-dev] Problem with PBF reader

[WanMil]

Hi,

there have been several reports that PBF formatted planet files updated 
with osmupdate are not compatible with osmosis.

I started an investigation to find the problem. It is currently unknown 
if the problem is located on osmupdate or on osmosis site or if that's a 
different understanding of the PBF format.

The current status is that a planet file updated with osmupdate can be 
read by osmsosis without any error message but osmosis reads different 
longitude values than osmconvert/osmupdate. osmosis even reads invalid 
longitude values. When converting the planet file from pbf to osm.xml 
format with osmosis there are many longitude values with values > 180°.

It would be great if one of you (osmosis developers) can read, follow 
and contribute to the thread dealing with this problem:
