I put offline Wikipedia dumps with Xowa wiki reader onto huge thumb drives & distribute to a niche people without online access. Similarly, I wish to package the entire OpenStreetMap data of a particular country along with a user friendly map viewer (would be nice to do basic trip routing/planning; GPS navigating is not needed). Question 1: Are there any such open-source offline packages already available somewhere? or will become available? If not, what strategy or basic plan would you recommend if I need to compile all this myself? I can get easily get PBF files of a country from http://download.geofabrik.de/ But how go from there? I am not interested in editing maps, but I would need something to decompress the PBF's for some map viewers. I love Marble's interface, but not sure if it contains the backend routing and will it be fast enough? Most of my clients use Windows but I like to also avail for the other platforms if possible. I would appreciate what might be a simple outline how this could be accomplished. |

There are numerous possible ways to achieve your goal and it is a bit difficult to give an answer without knowing more about your environment. T would suggest having a look at the various software lists and libraries listed in our wiki http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Main_Page |

You can take a look at https://jeromegagnonvoyer.wordpress.com/2015/08/21/offline-solution-for-openstreetmap-osm/ That project has a similar goal to yours. I just remembered that post, I don't know about it beyond that. Thank you, this lead may help me.
