Authenticate or logout osmapiR

Description

Log in/out osmapiR.

Usage

authenticate_osmapi()

logout_osmapi()

Details

All functions that require authentication will trigger the log in if the session is not yet authenticated, so calling this function is not really needed. Use authenticate_osmapi to sign in before executing scripts that require authentication to avoid interruptions.

Value

For authenticate_osmapi, print the user and permissions of the connection and return invisibly the display name of the logged user. logout_osmapi clear the OAuth2 token and can be useful to change user.

See Also

Other API functions: osm_api_versions(), osm_capabilities(), osm_permissions(), set_osmapi_connection()

Examples

## Not run: 
authenticate_osmapi()
logout_osmapi()

## End(Not run)

Available API versions

Description

Available API versions

Usage

osm_api_versions()

Value

A character vector with the supported versions

Examples

osm_api_versions()

Retrieve map data by bounding box

Description

The following command returns:

  • All nodes that are inside a given bounding box and any relations that reference them.

  • All ways that reference at least one node that is inside a given bounding box, any relations that reference them [the ways], and any nodes outside the bounding box that the ways may reference.

  • All relations that reference one of the nodes, ways or relations included due to the above rules. (Does ”'not”' apply recursively, see explanation below.)

Usage

osm_bbox_objects(bbox, format = c("R", "xml", "json"), tags_in_columns = FALSE)

Arguments

bbox

Coordinates for the area to retrieve the map data from (⁠left,bottom,right,top⁠).

format

Format of the output. Can be "R" (default), "xml", or "json".

tags_in_columns

If FALSE (default), the tags of the objects are saved in a single list column tags containing a data.frame for each OSM object with the keys and values. If TRUE, add a column for each key. Ignored if format != "R".

Details

Note that, while this command returns those relations that reference the aforementioned nodes and ways, the reverse is not true: it does not (necessarily) return all of the nodes and ways that are referenced by these relations. This prevents unreasonably-large result sets. For example, imagine the case where:

  • There is a relation named "England" that references every node in England.

  • The nodes, ways, and relations are retrieved for a bounding box that covers a small portion of England. While the result would include the nodes, ways, and relations as specified by the rules for the command, including the "England" relation, it would (fortuitously) not include every node and way in England. If desired, the nodes and ways referenced by the "England" relation could be retrieved by their respective IDs.

Also note that ways which intersect the bounding box but have no nodes within the bounding box will not be returned.

Value

If format = "R", returns a data frame with one OSM object per row. If format = "xml", returns a xml2::xml_document following the OSM_XML format. If format = "json", returns a list with a json structure following the OSM_JSON format.

Note

For downloading data for purposes other than editing or exploring the history of the objects, perhaps is better to use the Overpass API. A similar function to download OSM objects using Overpass, is implemented in the osmdata function opq().

Other get OSM objects' functions: osm_get_objects(), osm_history_object(), osm_relations_object(), osm_ways_node(), osmapi_objects()

Examples

map_data <- osm_bbox_objects(bbox = c(1.8366775, 41.8336843, 1.8379971, 41.8344537))
## bbox as a character value also works (bbox = "1.8366775,41.8336843,1.8379971,41.8344537").
map_data

Capabilities of the API

Description

Provide information about the capabilities and limitations of the current API.

Usage

osm_capabilities()

Details

API:

  • version minimum and maximum are the API call versions that the server will accept.

  • area maximum is the maximum area in square degrees that can be queried by API calls.

  • tracepoints per_page is the maximum number of points in a single GPS trace. (Possibly incorrect)

  • waynodes maximum is the maximum number of nodes that a way may contain.

  • relationmember maximum is the maximum number of members that a relation may contain.

  • changesets maximum_elements is the maximum number of combined nodes, ways and relations that can be contained in a changeset.

  • changesets default_query_limit and maximum_query_limit are the default and maximum values of the limit parameter of osm_query_changesets().

  • notes default_query_limit and maximum_query_limit are the default and maximum values of the limit parameter of notes bounding box queries (osm_read_bbox_notes()) and search (osm_search_notes()).

  • The status element returns either online, readonly or offline for each of the database, API and GPX API. The database field is informational, and the API/GPX-API fields indicate whether a client should expect read and write requests to work (online), only read requests to work (readonly) or no requests to work (offline).

Policy:

  • Imagery blacklist lists all aerial and map sources, which are not permitted for OSM usage due to copyright. Editors must not show these resources as background layer.

Value

A list with the API capabilities and policies.

Since the file is processed asynchronously, the call will complete successfully even if the file cannot be processed. The file may also be a .tar, .tar.gz or .zip containing multiple gpx files, although it will appear as a single entry in the upload log.

Value

A number representing the ID of the new gpx.

Create an OSM object

Description

Creates a new element in an open changeset as specified.

Usage

osm_create_object(x, changeset_id)

Arguments

x

The new object data. Can be the path to an xml file, a xml2::xml_document or a data.frame inheriting or following the structure of an osmapi_objects object.

changeset_id

The ID of an open changeset where to create the object. If missing, x should define the changeset ID, otherwise it will be overwritten with changeset_id. Ignored if x is a path.

Details

If x is a data.frame, the columns type, changeset, tags must be present + column members for ways and relations + lat and lon for nodes. For the xml format, see the OSM wiki.

If multiple elements are provided only the first is created. The rest is discarded.

Value

The ID of the newly created OSM object.

Note

  • This updates the bounding box of the changeset.

  • The role attribute for relations is optional. An empty string is the default.

  • To avoid performance issues when uploading multiple objects, the use of the osm_diff_upload_changeset() is highly recommended.

  • The version of the created object will be 1.

Arguments

note_id

Note ids represented by a numeric or a character vector.

text

A non-mandatory comment as text.

Details

Other functions for moderators: osm_hide_comment_changeset_discussion(), osm_redaction_object()

Examples

## Not run: 
set_osmapi_connection("testing") # use the testing server
note <- osm_create_note(lat = "40.7327375", lon = "0.1702526", text = "Test note to delete.")
del_note <- osm_delete_note(note_id = note$id, text = "Hide note")
del_note

## End(Not run)

Delete an OSM object

Description

Expects a valid XML representation of the element to be deleted.

Usage

osm_delete_object(x, changeset_id)

Arguments

x

The object data. Can be the path of an xml file, a xml2::xml_document or a data.frame inheriting or following the structure of an osmapi_objects object.

changeset_id

The ID of an open changeset where to create the object. If missing, x should define the changeset ID, otherwise it will be overwritten with changeset_id. Ignored if x is a path.

Details

The version must match the version of the element you downloaded and the changeset must match the id of an open changeset owned by the current authenticated user. It is allowed, but not necessary, to have tags on the element except for lat/long which are required for nodes, without lat+lon the server gives 400 Bad request.

If x is a data.frame, the columns type, id, version and changeset must be present + lat and lon for nodes. For the xml format, see the OSM wiki.

If multiple elements are provided only the first is deleted. The rest is discarded.

Value

Returns the new version number of the object.

Note

  • This updates the bounding box of the changeset.

  • To avoid performance issues when deleting multiple objects, the use of the osm_diff_upload_changeset() is highly recommended. This is also the only way to ensure that multiple objects are updated in a single database transaction.

Diff (OsmChange format) upload to a changeset

Description

With this API call files in the OsmChange format can be uploaded to the server. This is guaranteed to be running in a transaction. So either all the changes are applied or none.

Usage

osm_diff_upload_changeset(changeset_id, osmcha, format = c("R", "xml"))

Arguments

changeset_id

The ID of the changeset this diff belongs to. The user issuing this API call has to be the same that created the changeset.

osmcha

The OsmChange data. Can be the path of an OsmChange file, a xml2::xml_document or an osmapi_OsmChange object (see ⁠osmchange_*()⁠ functions).

format

Format of the output. Can be "R" (default) or "xml".

Details

To upload an OSC file it has to conform to the OsmChange specification with the following differences:

  • each element must carry a changeset and a version attribute (xml) / column (data.frame), except when you are creating an element where the version is not required as the server sets that for you. The changeset must be the same as the changeset ID being uploaded to.

  • a ⁠<delete>⁠ block in the OsmChange document may have an ⁠if-unused⁠ attribute (the value of which is ignored) (action_type column with ⁠delete if-unused⁠ for data.frames). If this attribute is present, then the delete operation(s) in this block are conditional and will only be executed if the object to be deleted is not used by another object. Without the ⁠if-unused⁠, such a situation would lead to an error, and the whole diff upload would fail. Setting the attribute will also cause deletions of already deleted objects to not generate an error.

  • OsmChange documents generally have user and uid attributes on each element. These are not required in the document uploaded to the API.

Value

If a diff is successfully applied and format = "R", it returns a data frame with one row for each edited object. For format = "xml", a xml2::xml_document is returned in the following format:

<diffResult generator="OpenStreetMap Server" version="0.6">
	<node|way|relation old_id="#" new_id="#" new_version="#"/>
	...
</diffResult>

with one element for every object in the upload.

Note that this can be counter-intuitive when the same element has appeared multiple times in the input then it will appear multiple times in the output.

Attribute create modify delete
old_id same as uploaded element same as uploaded element same as uploaded element
new_id new ID new ID ''or'' same as uploaded not present
new_version new version new version not present

Note

  • Processing stops at the first error, so if there are multiple conflicts in one diff upload, only the first problem is reported.

  • Refer to osm_capabilities() –> changesets$maximum_elements for the maximum number of changes permitted in a changeset.

  • There is currently no limit in the diff size on the Rails port. CGImap limits diff size to 50MB (uncompressed size).

  • Forward referencing of placeholder ids is not permitted and will be rejected by the API.

Download a changeset in OsmChange format

Description

Returns the OsmChange document describing all changes associated with the changeset.

Usage

osm_download_changeset(changeset_id, format = c("R", "osc", "xml"))

Arguments

changeset_id

The id of the changeset represented by a numeric or a character value for which the OsmChange is requested.

format

Format of the output. Can be "R" (default) or "osc" ("xml" is a synonym for "osc").

Details

  • The result of calling this may change as long as the changeset is open.

  • The elements in the OsmChange are sorted by timestamp and version number.

  • There is osm_get_changesets() to get only information about the changeset itself.

Value

If format = "R", returns a data frame with one row for each edit action in the changeset. If format = "osc", returns a xml2::xml_document in the OsmChange format.

RSS Feed of notes in a bbox

Description

RSS Feed of notes in a bbox

Usage

osm_feed_notes(bbox)

Arguments

bbox

Coordinates for the area to retrieve the notes from (⁠left,bottom,right,top⁠). Floating point numbers in degrees, expressing a valid bounding box, not larger than the configured size limit, 25 square degrees (see osm_capabilities()$note_area and this line in settings for the current value), not overlapping the dateline.

Value

Returns a xml2::xml_document in the RSS format.

See Also

Other get notes' functions: osm_get_notes(), osm_read_bbox_notes(), osm_search_notes()

Examples

feed_notes <- osm_feed_notes(bbox = c(0.8205414, 40.6686604, 0.8857727, 40.7493377))
## bbox as a character value also works (bbox = "0.8205414,40.6686604,0.8857727,40.7493377").
feed_notes

Get changesets

Description

Returns the changesets with the given changeset_id.

Usage

osm_get_changesets(
  changeset_id,
  include_discussion = FALSE,
  format = c("R", "sf", "xml", "json"),
  tags_in_columns = FALSE
)

Arguments

changeset_id

A vector with ids of changesets to retrieve represented by a numeric or a character values.

include_discussion

Indicates whether the result should contain the changeset discussion or not.

format

Format of the output. Can be "R" (default), "sf", "xml", or "json".

tags_in_columns

If FALSE (default), the tags of the changesets are saved in a single list column tags containing a data.frame for each changeset with the keys and values. If TRUE, add a column for each key. Ignored if format != "R".

Details

  • The uid might not be available for changesets auto generated by the API v0.5 to API v0.6 transition

  • The bounding box attributes will be missing for an empty changeset.

  • The changeset bounding box is a rectangle that contains the bounding boxes of all objects changed in this changeset. It is not necessarily the smallest possible rectangle that does so.

  • This API call only returns information about the changeset itself but not the actual changes made to elements in this changeset. To access this information use osm_download_changeset().

Value

If format = "R", returns a data frame with one OSM changeset per row. If format = "sf", returns a sf object from sf.

format = "xml"

Returns a xml2::xml_document with the following format:

<osm>
	<changeset id="10" created_at="2008-11-08T19:07:39+01:00" open="true" user="fred" uid="123" min_lon="7.0191821" min_lat="49.2785426" max_lon="7.0197485" max_lat="49.2793101" comments_count="3" changes_count="10">

			</comment>
			...
		</discussion>
	</changeset>
	<changeset>
	  ...
	</changeset>
</osm>

format = "json"

Returns a list with the following json structure:

{
 "version": "0.6",
 "elements": [
  {"type": "changeset",
   "id": 10,
   "created_at": "2005-05-01T16:09:37Z",

Download GPS Track Data

Description

Use this to download the full GPX file. Private and trackable traces are only available by the owner account. Requires authentication.

Usage

osm_get_data_gpx(gpx_id, format)

Arguments

gpx_id

The track id represented by a numeric or a character value.

format

Format of the output. If missing (default), the response will be the exact file that was uploaded. If "R", a data.frame. If "sf_lines" ("sf" is a synonym for "sf_lines") or "sf_points", a sf object from package sf. If "gpx", the response will always be a GPX format file. If "xml", a xml file in an undocumented format.

Value

If missing format, returns a xml2::xml_document with the original file data. If format = "R", returns a data frame with one point per row and the attributes extracted from the xml response. If format = "sf*", returns a sf object from sf (see st_as_sf() for details). If format = "gpx", returns a xml2::xml_document in the GPX format. If format = "xml", returns a xml2::xml_document in an undocumented format.

Note

If you request refers to a multi-file archive the response when you force gpx or xml format will consist of a non-standard simple concatenation of the files.

Extended data following schema ⁠http://www.garmin.com/xmlschemas/TrackPointExtension/v1⁠ in gpx files will be extracted for format = "R" and format = "sf_points", but lost for format = "sf_line".

Get OSM objects

Description

Retrieve objects by type, id and version.

Usage

osm_get_objects(
  osm_type,
  osm_id,
  version,
  full_objects = FALSE,
  format = c("R", "xml", "json"),
  tags_in_columns = FALSE
)

Arguments

osm_type

A vector with the type of the objects ("node", "way" or "relation"). Recycled if it has a different length than osm_id.

osm_id

Object ids represented by a numeric or a character vector.

version

An optional vector with the version number for each object. If missing, the last version will be retrieved. Recycled if it has different length than osm_id.

full_objects

If TRUE, retrieves all other objects referenced by ways or relations. Not compatible with version.

format

Format of the output. Can be "R" (default), "xml", or "json".

tags_in_columns

If FALSE (default), the tags of the objects are saved in a single list column ⁠tags``` containing a ⁠data.frame⁠for each OSM object with the keys and values. If⁠TRUE⁠, add a column for each key. Ignored if ⁠format != "R"'.

Details

full_objects = TRUE does not support specifying version. For ways, full_objects = TRUE implies that it will return the way specified plus all nodes referenced by the way. For a relation, it will return the following:

  • The relation itself

  • All nodes, ways, and relations that are members of the relation

  • Plus all nodes used by ways from the previous step

  • The same recursive logic is not applied to relations. This means: If relation r1 contains way w1 and relation r2, and w1 contains nodes n1 and n2, and r2 contains node n3, then a "full" request for r1 will give you r1, r2, w1, n1, and n2. Not n3.

Value

If format = "R", returns a data frame with one OSM object per row. If format = "xml", returns a xml2::xml_document following the OSM_XML format. If format = "json", returns a list with a json structure following the OSM_JSON format.

Objects are sorted in the same order than osm_id except for full_objects = TRUE, where the nodes comes first, then ways, and relations at the end as specified by OSM_XML format.

Note

For downloading data for purposes other than editing or exploring the history of the objects, perhaps is better to use the Overpass API. A similar function to download OSM objects by type and id using Overpass, is implemented in the osmdata function opq_osm_id().

See Also

Other get OSM objects' functions: osm_bbox_objects(), osm_history_object(), osm_relations_object(), osm_ways_node(), osmapi_objects()

Examples

obj <- osm_get_objects(
  osm_type = c("node", "way", "way", "relation", "relation", "node"),
  osm_id = c("35308286", "13073736", "235744929", "40581", "341530", "1935675367"),
  version = c(1, 3, 2, 5, 7, 1)
)

Get GPS Points

Description

Use this to retrieve the GPS track points that are inside a given bounding box (formatted in a GPX format).

Usage

osm_get_points_gps(
  bbox,
  page_number = 0,
  format = c("R", "sf", "sf_lines", "sf_points", "gpx")
)

Arguments

bbox

Coordinates for the area to retrieve the notes from (⁠left,bottom,right,top⁠). Floating point numbers in degrees, expressing a valid bounding box. The maximal width (right - left) and height (top - bottom) of the bounding box is 0.25 degree.

page_number

Specifies which groups of 5,000 points, or page, to return. The API call does not return more than 5,000 points at a time. In order to retrieve all of the points for a bounding box, set page_number = -1. When this parameter is 0 (zero), the command returns the first 5,000 points; when it is 1, the command returns points 5,001–10,000, etc. A vector is also valid (e.g. 0:2 to get the first 3 pages).

format

Format of the output. Can be "R" (default), "sf_lines" ("sf" is a synonym for "sf_lines"), "sf_points" or "gpx".

Value

If format = "R", returns a list of data frames with the points for each trace. For public and identifiable traces, the data frame include the attributes track_url, track_name, and track_desc. If format = "sf_lines", returns a sf object from sf. For format = "sf_points", returns a list of sf object (see st_as_sf() for details).

format = "gpx"

Returns a xml2::xml_document with the following format:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<gpx version="1.0" creator="OpenStreetMap.org" xmlns="http://www.topografix.com/GPX/1/0">
	<trk>
		<name>20190626.gpx</name>
		<desc>Footpaths near Blackweir Pond, Epping Forest</desc>
		<url>https://api.openstreetmap.org/user/John%20Leeming/traces/3031013</url>
		<trkseg>
			<trkpt lat="51.6616100" lon="0.0534560">
				<time>2019-06-26T14:27:58Z</time>
			</trkpt>
			...
		</trkseg>
		...
	</trk>
	...
</gpx>
  • This response is NOT wrapped in an OSM xml parent element.

  • The file format is GPX Version 1.0 which is not the current version. Verify that your tools support it.

Note

In violation of the GPX standard when downloading public GPX traces through the API, all waypoints of non-trackable traces are randomized (or rather sorted by lat/lon) and delivered as one trackSegment for privacy reasons. Trackable traces are delivered, sorted by descending upload time, before the waypoints of non-trackable traces.

Private traces without name, desc and url can be separated in different items in the result if they get split due to server pagination. Public traces are united using matching URL.

Get or set preferences for the logged-in user

Description

Get or set preferences for the logged-in user

Usage

osm_get_preferences_user(key, format = c("R", "xml", "json"))

osm_set_preferences_user(key, value, all_prefs)

Arguments

key

Returns a string with this preference's value. If missing, return all preferences.

format

Format of the output. Can be "R" (default), "xml", or "json". Only relevant when key is missing.

Details

The sizes of the key and value are limited to 255 characters.

The OSM server supports storing arbitrary user preferences. This can be used by editors, for example, to offer the same configuration wherever the user logs in, instead of a locally-stored configuration. For an overview of applications using the preferences-API and which key-schemes they use, see this wiki page.

Value

If format = "R", returns a data frame with key and value columns of the user preferences.

format = "xml"

Returns a xml2::xml_document with the following format:

<osm version="0.6" generator="OpenStreetMap server">
	<preferences>
		<preference k="somekey" v="somevalue" />
		...
	</preferences>
</osm>

format = "json"

Returns a list with the following json structure:

{
 "version": "0.6",
 "generator": "OpenStreetMap server",

Returns the permissions granted to the current API connection.

Usage

osm_permissions(format = c("R", "xml", "json"))

Arguments

format

Format of the output. Can be "R" (default), "xml", or "json".

Details

Currently the following permissions can appear in the result, corresponding directly to the ones used in the OAuth 1.0a application definition:

  • allow_read_prefs (read user preferences)

  • allow_write_prefs (modify user preferences)

  • allow_write_diary (create diary entries, comments and make friends)

  • allow_write_api (modify the map)

  • allow_read_gpx (read private GPS traces)

  • allow_write_gpx (upload GPS traces)

  • allow_write_notes (modify notes)

Value

If the API client is not authorized, an empty list of permissions will be returned. Otherwise, the list will be based on the granted scopes of the logged user.

Note

For compatibility reasons, all OAuth 2.0 scopes will be prefixed by "allow_", e.g. scope "read_prefs" will be shown as permission "allow_read_prefs".

Query changesets

Description

This is an API method for querying changesets. It supports querying by different criteria.

Usage

osm_query_changesets(
  bbox,
  user,
  time,
  time_2,
  open,
  closed,
  changeset_ids,
  order = c("newest", "oldest"),
  limit = getOption("osmapir.api_capabilities")$api$changesets["default_query_limit"],
  format = c("R", "sf", "xml", "json"),
  tags_in_columns = FALSE
)

Arguments

bbox

Find changesets within the given bounding box coordinates (⁠left,bottom,right,top⁠).

user

Find changesets by the user with the given user id (numeric) or display name (character).

time

Find changesets closed after this date and time. See details for the valid formats.

time_2

find changesets that were closed after time and created before time_2. In other words, any changesets that were open at some time during the given time range time to time_2.

open

If TRUE, only finds changesets that are still open but excludes changesets that are closed or have reached the element limit for a changeset (10,000 at the moment osm_capabilities()$api$changesets).

closed

If TRUE, only finds changesets that are closed or have reached the element limit.

changeset_ids

Finds changesets with the specified ids.

order

If "newest" (default), sort newest changesets first. If "oldest", reverse order.

limit

Specifies the maximum number of changesets returned. 100 as the default value.

format

Format of the output. Can be "R" (default), "sf", "xml", or "json".

tags_in_columns

If FALSE (default), the tags of the changesets are saved in a single list column tags containing a data.frame for each changeset with the keys and values. If TRUE, add a column for each key. Ignored if format != "R".

Details

Where multiple queries are given the result will be those which match all of the requirements. The contents of the returned document are the changesets and their tags. To get the full set of changes associated with a changeset, use osm_download_changeset() on each changeset ID individually.

Modification and extension of the basic queries above may be required to support rollback and other uses we find for changesets.

This call returns latest changesets matching criteria. The default ordering is newest first, but you can specify order = "oldest" to reverse the sort order (see ordered by created_at – see the current state). Reverse ordering cannot be combined with time.

Te valid formats for time and time_2 parameters are anything that Time.parse Ruby function will parse.

Value

If format = "R", returns a data frame with one OSM changeset per row. If format = "sf", returns a sf object from sf.

format = "xml"

Returns a xml2::xml_document with the following format:

<osm>
	<changeset id="10" created_at="2008-11-08T19:07:39+01:00" open="true" user="fred" uid="123" min_lon="7.0191821" min_lat="49.2785426" max_lon="7.0197485" max_lat="49.2793101" comments_count="3" changes_count="10">

Update an OSM object

Description

Updates data from a preexisting element.

Usage

osm_update_object(x, changeset_id)

Arguments

x

The new object data. Can be the path of an xml file, a xml2::xml_document or a data.frame inheriting or following the structure of an osmapi_objects object.

changeset_id

The ID of an open changeset where to create the object. If missing, x should define the changeset ID, otherwise it will be overwritten with changeset_id. Ignored if x is a path.

Details

A full representation of the element as it should be after the update has to be provided. Any tags, way-node refs, and relation members that remain unchanged must be in the update as well. A version number must be provided as well, it must match the current version of the element in the database.

If x is a data.frame, the columns type, id, visible, version, changeset, and tags must be present + column members for ways and relations + lat and lon for nodes. For the xml format, see the OSM wiki.

If multiple elements are provided only the first is updated. The rest is discarded.

Value

Returns the new version number of the object.

Note

  • This updates the bounding box of the changeset.

  • To avoid performance issues when updating multiple objects, the use of the osm_diff_upload_changeset() is highly recommended. This is also the only way to ensure that multiple objects are updated in a single database transaction.

  format = c("R", "osc", "xml")
)

Arguments

x

A osmapi_objects with the columns type and id with unique combinations of values plus columns specifying tags, members or latitude and longitude.

tag_keys

A character vector with the keys of the tags that will be modified. If missing (default), all tags will be updated, removed or created. If FALSE, don't modify tags.

members

If TRUE and x has a members column, update the members of the ways and relations objects.

lat_lon

If TRUE and x has a lat and lon columns, update the coordinates of the node objects.

format

Format of the output. Can be "R" (default), "osc" ("xml" is a synonym for "osc").

Details

x should be a osmapi_objects or follow the same format. Missing tags or tags with NA in the value will be removed if tag_keys is not specified. See osm_get_objects() for examples of the format.

Value

If format = "R", returns a osmapi_OsmChange data frame with one OSM edition per row. If format = "osc" or format = "xml", returns a xml2::xml_document following the OsmChange format that can be saved with xml2::write_xml() and opened in other applications such as JOSM.

The results are ready to send the editions to the servers with osm_diff_upload_changeset().

Configure connections from osmapiR

Description

Functions to configure the connections. Probably, you should only use set_osmapi_connection.

Usage

set_osmapi_connection(
  server = c("openstreetmap.org", "testing"),
  cache_authentication
)

get_osmapi_url()

set_osmapi_url(osmapi_url)

Arguments

server

If openstreetmap.org (default), the API calls will be performed to the servers in production. If testing, the calls will be against https://master.apis.dev.openstreetmap.org without affecting the main OSM data.

cache_authentication

If TRUE, the authentication token will be cached on disk. This reduces the number of times that you need to re-authenticate at the cost of storing access credentials on disk. Cached tokens are encrypted and automatically deleted 30 days after creation. If missing (default), no changes will be applied. On package load time, the option is set to FALSE if it's not yet set.

osmapi_url

The desired API URL to send the calls.

Details

When testing your software against the API you should consider using https://master.apis.dev.openstreetmap.org instead of the live-api (set_osmapi_connection("testing")). Your account for the live service is not in the same database, so you probably need a new username and password for the test service; please visit that page in a browser to sign up.

set_osmapi_url() and get_osmapi_url only deal with the API base URL. On the other hand, set_osmapi_connection also configure the authentication parameters needed for PUT, POST and DELETE calls.

Convert osmapiR objects to sf objects

Description

Convert osmapiR objects to sf objects

Usage

st_as_sf.osmapi_map_notes(x, ...)

st_as_sf.osmapi_changesets(x, ...)

st_as_sf.osmapi_gps_track(x, format = c("line", "points"), ...)

st_as_sf.osmapi_gpx(x, format = c("lines", "points"), ...)

Arguments

x

an osmapiR object.

...

passed on to st_as_sf() from sf package.

format

Format of the output. If "line" (the default), return a sf object with one LINESTRING for each track. If "points", return a sf with the POINTs of the track as features. See below for details.

Value

Returns a sf object from sf package or a list of for osmapi_gpx and format = "points".

When x is a osmapi_gps_track or osmapi_gpx object and format = "line", the result will have XYZM dimensions for coordinates, elevation and time if available. In this format, time will loss the POSIXct type as only numeric For format = "points", the result will have XY dimensions and elevation and time will be independent columns if available.

Change tags from a list column <-> columns for each key in wide format

Description

Objects of classes osmapi_objects and osmapi_changesets can represent the tags in a column with a list with a data.frame for each row with 2 columns for keys and values, or by columns for each key. These functions allow to change the format of the tags.

Usage

tags_list2wide(x)

tags_wide2list(x)

Arguments

x

An osmapi_objects or osmapi_changesets objects as returned by, for example, osm_get_objects() or osm_get_changesets().

Details

Both formats have advantages. Tags in a list of data.frames is a more compact representation and there is no risk of clashes of column names and tag keys. Tags in columns make it easier to select rows by tags as in a regular data.frame. Column name clashes are resolved and the original key names restored when transformed to tags list format.

By default, functions returning osmapi_objects or osmapi_changesets objects, use the the tags in a list column, but can return the results in a wide format using the parameter tags_in_columns = TRUE.

Value

A data frame with the same class and data than the original (osmapi_objects or osmapi_changesets) but with the specified tags' format.
