Does anywhere host the OSM planet DB as a Postgresql dump? I have tried using osm2pgsql but I have limited processing capabilities so it is never finishing. I do not have bandwidth limitations so ideally I would like to download a Postgresql dump or another format that does not require as much processing. Data in a torrent would be ideal.

  • @Mapperz there is no way that will be quicker than piping a pg_dump file at the command line. – John Powell Mar 07 '17 at 06:21

    I was also shocked at how much processing is involved with osm2pgsql and pbf format. I ended up using osmosis in Google compute engine, and pg_dumping that. – John Powell Mar 07 '17 at 06:22

    but you need a pg_dump for the data you are interested in. At least the shape to postgis get the data you want in the database quickly. – Mapperz Mar 07 '17 at 15:42
  • Maybe https://imposm.org/ is an alternative to osm2pgsql? With less resources needed? – stephan75 Mar 08 '17 at 13:43
