Hello! I'm trying to convert osm to kmz. I've found one solution, but I need to make osm much smaller. How can I keep only buildings in osm file? It will be perfect to keep buildings outline only with height visulization like on screenshot. asked 19 Dec '16, 13:48  squadgazzz edited 19 Dec '16, 13:49 |

You can use osmfilter a very simple tool for such task: answered 21 Dec '16, 11:08  Gagan thank you! do you maybe know a better way to visualize buildings height and convert file to kmz/kml for google earth? now I'm doing this - convert OSM to OBJ > convert OBJ to KMZ. It doesnt work for files more than 100mb size. After filtering buildings I have 500mb size file.. (21 Dec '16, 11:38) squadgazzz If you just want a visualization you can take a look at OSM2World.

Are you familiar with the Overpass API? I've used Overpass Turbo to visualise a simple query to extract only building=* in your area: http://overpass-turbo.eu/s/kMy You can also get KML or geoJSON directly from the overpass API to import in Google Earth. In Overpass Turbo, go to 'Export', then choose the format you want. answered 20 Dec '16, 20:30  Stereo edited 20 Dec '16, 20:34 cool,thanks. but how to visualize buildings height like on screenshot? (21 Dec '16, 06:28) squadgazzz also I have a problem with export the whole city. Moscow for example.. I already have osm file of this city(1500mb size). But don't know how to keep buildings only to make file much smaller (21 Dec '16, 06:46) squadgazzz |
What is your current solution?
convert OSM to OBJ > convert OBJ to KMZ
