Geofabrik diff files by country

0

Hi all,

I'm testing how to use osm2pgsql to keep an up-to-date Postgres base with OSM data on France (all tables). I take my extracts from Geofabrik for the country, but I can't find if there is any link for diffs on countries ? Is there just the diff files for the whole world ? What would be the best strategy to update a country base ?

Thanks a lot !!

Yes there are diff files per country. It's only daily (no minutely or hourly diffs), and you'll have to use the custom status number from the file.

For france the url is here http://download.geofabrik.de/europe/france-updates/

It's probably not as clear as it could be, but if you click on raw directory index, you can see the france-updates directory.
