This function is used to find, download, translate, and read OSM extracts
obtained from several providers. It is a wrapper around oe_match()
and
oe_read()
. Check the introductory vignette, the examples, and the help
pages of the wrapped functions to understand the details behind all
parameters.

Arguments
- place
Description of the geographical area that should be matched with a
.osm.pbf
file. Can be either a length-1 character vector, ansf
/sfc
/bbox
object with any CRS, or a numeric vector of coordinates with length 2. In the last case, it is assumed that the EPSG code is 4326 specified as c(LON, LAT), while you can use any CRS withsf
/sfc
/bbox
objects. See Details and Examples inoe_match()
.- layer
Which
layer
should be read in? Typicallypoints
,lines
(the default),multilinestrings
,multipolygons
orother_relations
. If you specify an ad-hoc query using the argumentquery
(see introductory vignette and examples), thenoe_get()
andoe_read()
will read the layer specified in the query and ignorelayer
argument. See also #122.- ...
(Named) arguments that will be passed to
sf::st_read()
, likequery
,wkt_filter
orstringsAsFactors
. Check the introductory vignette to understand how to create your own (SQL-like) queries.- provider
Which provider should be used to download the data? Available providers can be browsed with
oe_providers()
. Foroe_get()
andoe_match()
, ifplace
is equal toITS Leeds
, thenprovider
is internally set equal to"test"
. This is just for simple examples and internal tests.- match_by
Which column of the provider's database should be used for matching the input
place
with a.osm.pbf
file? The default is"name"
. Check Details and Examples inoe_match()
to understand how this parameter works. Ignored whenplace
is not a character vector since, in that case, the matching is performed through a spatial operation.- max_string_dist
Numerical value greater or equal than 0. What is the maximum distance in fuzzy matching (i.e. Approximate String Distance, see
adist()
) between inputplace
andmatch_by
column that can be tolerated before testing alternative providers or looking for geographical matching with Nominatim API? This parameter is set equal to 0 ifmatch_by
is equal toiso3166_1_alpha2
oriso3166_2
. Check Details and Examples inoe_match()
to understand why this parameter is important. Ignored whenplace
is not a character vector since, in that case, the matching is performed through a spatial operation.- level
An integer representing the desired hierarchical level in case of spatial matching. For the
geofabrik
provider, for example,1
corresponds with continent-level datasets,2
for countries,3
corresponds to regions and4
to subregions. Hence, we could approximately say that smaller administrative units correspond to bigger levels. IfNULL
, the default, theoe_*
functions will select the highest available level. See Details and Examples inoe_match()
.- download_directory
Directory to store the file containing OSM data?.
- force_download
Should the
.osm.pbf
file be updated even if it has already been downloaded?FALSE
by default. This parameter is used to update old.osm.pbf
files.- max_file_size
The maximum file size to download without asking in interactive mode. Default:
5e+8
, half a gigabyte.- vectortranslate_options
Options passed to the
sf::gdal_utils()
argumentoptions
. Set by default. Check details in the introductory vignette and the help page ofoe_vectortranslate()
.- osmconf_ini
The configuration file. See documentation at gdal.org. Check details in the introductory vignette and the help page of
oe_vectortranslate()
. Set by default.Which additional columns, corresponding to OSM tags, should be in the resulting dataset?
NULL
by default. Check the introductory vignette and the help pages ofoe_vectortranslate()
andoe_get_keys()
. Ignored whenosmconf_ini
is notNULL
.- force_vectortranslate
Boolean. Force the original
.pbf
file to be translated into a.gpkg
file, even if a.gpkg
with the same name already exists?FALSE
by default. If tags inextra_tags
match data in previously translated.gpkg
files no translation occurs (see #173 for details). Check the introductory vignette and the help page ofoe_vectortranslate()
.- boundary
An
sf
/sfc
/bbox
object that will be used to create a spatial filter during the vectortranslate operations. The type of filter can be chosen using the argumentboundary_type
.- boundary_type
A character vector of length 1 specifying the type of spatial filter. The
spat
filter selects only those features that intersect a given area, whileclipsrc
also clips the geometries. Check the examples and also here for more details.- download_only
Boolean. If
TRUE
, then the function only returns the path where the matched file is stored, instead of reading it.FALSE
by default.- skip_vectortranslate
Boolean. If
TRUE
, then the function skips all vectortranslate operations and it reads (or simply returns the path) of the.osm.pbf
file.FALSE
by default.- never_skip_vectortranslate
Boolean. This is used in case the user passed its own
.ini
file or vectortranslate options (since, in those case, it's too difficult to determine if an existing.gpkg
file was generated following the same options.)- quiet
Boolean. If
FALSE
, the function prints informative messages. Starting fromsf
version 0.9.6, ifquiet
is equal toFALSE
, then vectortranslate operations will display a progress bar.
Details
The algorithm that we use for importing an OSM extract data into R
is divided into 4 steps: 1) match the input place
with the url of a
.pbf
file; 2) download the .pbf
file; 3) convert it into .gpkg
format
and 4) read-in the .gpkg
file. The function oe_match()
is used to
perform the first operation and the function oe_read()
(which is a
wrapper around oe_download()
, oe_vectortranslate()
and sf::st_read()
)
performs the other three operations.
