Openstreetmap Geodata Coming...

[felipeou]

Hi friends, could you please tell me if I can follow the same procedures that you guys are following to Europe Geodatas for me here in Brazil using OpenStreet Maps?

If so, what should I do?
Thanks a lot

If www.openstreetmap.org has data for Brazil (or a particular city there), then you can use these scripts (you need to modify them of course) to get something going: http://stuff.nieko.net/psp/mapthis/geodata/.

For this to work you'll need quite some programming knowledge though.

THanks for the answer
But how do I know IF openstreet has data from my Country / City?
It finds streets and places when I search over there, that show that it has data about this place? thanks

The bunch of scripts and particularly process.txt in process.zip explain exactly how to run everything. Also, the file you downloaded, when unzipped, contains all the data in XML format, so you can search that for a particular street too.

If this doesn't get you going, I'm afraid you won't get it working, because quite some programming knowledge is required.
