Largest industrial areas in OSM

0

I'm curious about the largest industrial parks / districts in OpenStreetMap.

With which software can I get all landuse=industrial ways & relations in the planet dump by size?

Use osmium-tool to filter the planet for landuse=industrial (you want relations and ways). Then either import the resulting file to PostGIS with osm2pgsql or convert to shape file with a recent version of GDAL, or load directly in a suitable GIS program. PostGIS would be my favourite choice because it would easily allow some automated processing, like merging industrial areas that are very close (maybe just separated by a road).
