                               Routino : Usage
                               ===============


   There are five programs that make up this software. The first one takes
   the planet.osm datafile from OpenStreetMap (or other source of data
   using the same formats) and converts it into a local database. The
   second program uses the database to determine an optimum route between
   two points. The third program allows visualisation of the data and
   statistics to be extracted. The fourth program allows dumping the raw
   parsed data for test purposes and the fifth is a test program for the
   tag transformations.


planetsplitter
--------------

   This program reads in the OSM format XML file and splits it up to
   create the database that is used for routing.

   Usage: planetsplitter [--version]

                          | <filename.(osm|osc|o5m|o5c).xz> ...]

   --version
          Print the version of Routino.

   --help
          Prints out the help information.

   --dir=<dirname>
          Sets the directory name in which to save the results. Defaults
          to the current directory.

   --prefix=<name>
          Sets the filename prefix for the files that are created.
          Defaults to no prefix.

   --sort-ram-size=<size>
          Specifies the amount of RAM (in MB) to use for sorting the data.
          If not specified then 256 MB will be used in slim mode or 1024
          MB otherwise.

   --sort-threads=<number>
          The number of threads to use for data sorting (the sorting
          memory is shared between the threads - too many threads and not
          enough memory will reduce the performance).

   --tmpdir=<dirname>
          Specifies the name of the directory to store the temporary disk
          files. If not specified then it defaults to either the value of
          the --dir option or the current directory.

   --tagging=<filename>
          Sets the filename containing the list of tagging rules in XML
          format for the parsing the input files. If the file doesn't
          exist then dirname, prefix and "tagging.xml" will be combined
          and used, if that doesn't exist then the file
          '/usr/local/share/routino/tagging.xml' (or custom installation
          location) will be used.

   --loggable
          Print progress messages that are suitable for logging to a file;
          normally an incrementing counter is printed which is more
          suitable for real-time display than logging.

   --logtime
          Print the elapsed time for each processing step (minutes,
          seconds and milliseconds).

   --logmemory
          Print the maximum allocated and mapped memory for each
          processing step (MBytes).

   --errorlog[=<name>]
          Log OSM parsing and processing errors to 'error.log' or the
          specified file name (the '--dir' and '--prefix' options are
          applied). If the --append option is used then the existing log
          file will be appended, otherwise a new one will be created. If
          the --keep option is also used a geographically searchable
          database of error logs is created for use in the visualiser.

   --parse-only
          Parse the input files and store the data in intermediate files
          but don't process the data into a routing database. This option
          must be used with the --append option for all except the first
          file.

   --process-only
          Don't read in any files but process the existing intermediate
          files created by using the --parse-only option.

   --append
          Parse the input file and append the result to the existing
          intermediate files; the appended file can be either an OSM file
          or an OSC change file.

   --keep
          Store a set of intermediate files after parsing the OSM files,
          sorting and removing duplicates; this allows appending an OSC
          file and re-processing later.

   --changes
          This option indicates that the data being processed contains one
          or more OSC (OSM changes) files, they must be applied in time
          sequence if more than one is used. This option implies --append
          when parsing data files and --keep when processing data.

   --max-iterations=<number>
          The maximum number of iterations to use when generating
          super-nodes and super-segments. Defaults to 5 which is normally
          enough.

   --prune-none
          Disable the prune options below, they can be re-enabled by
          adding them to the command line after this option.

   --prune-isolated=<length>
          Remove the access permissions for a transport type from small
          disconnected groups of segments and remove the segments if they
          end up with no access permission (defaults to removing groups
          under 500m).

   --prune-short=<length>
          Remove short segments (defaults to removing segments up to a
          maximum length of 5m).

   --prune-straight=<length>
          Remove nodes in almost straight highways (defaults to removing
          nodes up to 3m offset from a straight line).

   <filename.osm>, <filename.osc>, <filename.pbf>, <filename.o5m>,
          <filename.o5c>
          Specifies the filename(s) to read data from. Filenames ending
          '.pbf' will be read as PBF, filenames ending in '.o5m' or '.o5c'
          will be read as O5M/O5C, otherwise as XML. Filenames ending
          '.bz2' will be bzip2 uncompressed (if bzip2 support compiled
          in). Filenames ending '.gz' will be gzip uncompressed (if gzip
          support compiled in). Filenames ending '.xz' will be xz
          uncompressed (if xz support compiled in).

   Note: It is recommended use the --sort-ram-size and --sort-threads
   options because they can make a significant reduction in the amount of
   time that it takes to create the database. Selection of the values to
   use will depend on the computer being used and the size of the dataset
   being processed. Selecting half the number of CPU cores and half the
   amount of available RAM is a reasonable starting point.

   Example usage 1:

   planetsplitter --dir=data --prefix=gb great_britain.osm

   This will generate the output files 'data/gb-nodes.mem',
   'data/gb-segments.mem' and 'data/gb-ways.mem'. Multiple filenames can
   be specified on the command line and they will all be read in, combined
   and processed together.

   Example usage 2:

   planetsplitter --dir=data --prefix=gb --parse-only          great_britain_part1.osm
   planetsplitter --dir=data --prefix=gb --parse-only --append great_britain_part2.osm
   planetsplitter --dir=data --prefix=gb --parse-only --append ...
   planetsplitter --dir=data --prefix=gb --process-only

   This will generate the same output files as the first example but
   parsing the input files is performed separately from the data
   processing. The first file read in must not use the --append option but
   the later ones must.

   Example usage 3:

   planetsplitter --dir=data --prefix=gb --keep    great_britain.osm

   planetsplitter --dir=data --prefix=gb --changes great_britain.osc

   This will generate the same output files as the first example. The
   first command will process the complete file and keep some intermediate
   data for later. The second command will apply a set of changes to the
   stored intermediate data and keep the updated intermediate files for
   repeating this step later with more change data.

   The parsing and processing can be split into multiple commands as it
   was in example 2 with the --keep option used with --process-only for
   the initial OSM file(s) and the --changes option used with --parse-only
   or --process-only for every OSC file.

   --exact-nodes-only
          When processing the specified latitude and longitude points only
          select the nearest node instead of finding the nearest point
          within a segment (quicker but less accurate unless the points

          running in a script).

   --loggable
          Print progress messages that are suitable for logging to a file;

          processing step (MBytes).

   --language=<lang>
          Select the language specified from the file of translations. If
          this option is not given and the file exists then the first
          language in the file will be used. If this option is not given

          Generate the selected output file formats (HTML, GPX track file,
          GPX route file, plain text route and/or plain text with all
          nodes). If no output is specified then all are generated,
          specifying any automatically disables those not specified.

   --output-none
          Do not generate any output or read in any translations files.

   --output-stdout
          Write to stdout instead of a file (requires exactly one output
          format option, implies '--quiet').

   --profile=<name>
          Specifies the name of the profile to use.

   --transport=<transport>
          Select the type of transport to use, <transport> can be set to:

          + psv = PSV (Public Service Vehicle - bus, coach)

          Defaults to 'motorcar', this option also selects the default
          profile information if the '--profile' option is not given and a
          profile matching the transport name is found.

   --shortest
          Find the shortest route between the waypoints.

   --quickest
          Find the quickest route between the waypoints.

   --lon1=<longitude>, --lat1=<latitude>
   --lon2=<longitude>, --lat2=<latitude>
   ... --lon99=<longitude>, --lat99=<latitude>
          The location of the waypoints that make up the start, middle and
          end points of the route. Up to 99 waypoints can be specified and
          the route will pass through each of the specified ones in
          sequence. The algorithm will use the closest node or point
          within a segment that allows the specified traffic type.

   --reverse
          Find a route between the waypoints in reverse order.

   --loop
          Find a route that returns to the first waypoint after the last
          one.

   --heading=<bearing>
          Specifies the initial direction of travel at the start of the
          route (from the lowest numbered waypoint) as a compass bearing
          from 0 to 360 degrees.

   --highway-<highway>=<preference>
          Selects the percentage preference for using each particular type
          of highway. The value of <highway> can be selected from:

          + motorway = Motorway
          + trunk = Trunk
          + primary = Primary
          + secondary = Secondary
          + tertiary = Tertiary
          + unclassified = Unclassified
          + residential = Residential
          + service = Service
          + track = Track
          + cycleway = Cycleway
          + path = Path
          + steps = Steps
          + ferry = Ferry

          Default value depends on the profile selected by the --transport
          option.

   --speed-<highway>=<speed>
          Selects the speed limit in km/hour for each type of highway.
          Default value depends on the profile selected by the --transport
          option.

   --property-<property>=<preference>
          Selects the percentage preference for using each particular
          highway property The value of <property> can be selected from:

          + paved = Paved (suitable for normal wheels)
          + multilane = Multiple lanes
          + bridge = Bridge
          + tunnel = Tunnel
          + footroute = A route marked for foot travel
          + bicycleroute = A route marked for bicycle travel

          Default value depends on the profile selected by the --transport
          option.

   --oneway=[0|1]
          Selects if the direction of oneway streets are to be obeyed
          (useful to not obey them when walking). Default value depends on
          the profile selected by the --transport option.

   --turns=[0|1]
          Selects if turn restrictions are to be obeyed (useful to not
          obey them when walking). Default value depends on the profile
          selected by the --transport option.

   --weight=<weight>
          Specifies the weight of the mode of transport in tonnes; ensures
          that the weight limit on the highway is not exceeded. Default
          value depends on the profile selected by the --transport option.

   --height=<height>
          Specifies the height of the mode of transport in metres; ensures
          that the height limit on the highway is not exceeded. Default
          value depends on the profile selected by the --transport option.

   --width=<width>
          Specifies the width of the mode of transport in metres; ensures
          that the width limit on the highway is not exceeded. Default
          value depends on the profile selected by the --transport option.

   --length=<length>
          Specifies the length of the mode of transport in metres; ensures
          that the length limit on the highway is not exceeded. Default
          value depends on the profile selected by the --transport option.

   The meaning of the <preference> parameter in the command line options
   is slightly different for the highway preferences and the property
   preferences. For the highway preference consider the choice between two
   possible highways between the start and finish when looking for the
   shortest route. If highway A has a preference of 100% and highway B has
   a preference of 90% then highway A will be chosen even if it is up to
   11% longer (100/90 = 111%). For the highway properties each highway
   either has a particular property or not. If the preference for the
   property is 60% then a highway with the property has a preference of
   77% (sqrt(60%)) and one without has a preference of 63%
   (sqrt(100-60%)). A highway with the property will be chosen even if it
   is up to 22% longer than one without the property (77/63 = 122%). The
   overall preference for each highway segment is the product of the
   preference for the highway type and all of the preferences for the
   highway properties.

   Example usage (motorcycle journey, scenic route, not very fast):

   router --dir=data --prefix=gb --transport=motorcycle --highway-motorway=0 \
          --highway-trunk=0 --speed-primary=80 --speed-secondary=80 --quickest

   This will use the files 'data/gb-nodes.mem', 'data/gb-segments.mem' and
   'data/gb-ways.mem' to find the quickest route by motorcycle not using
   motorways or trunk roads and not exceeding 80 km/hr.

filedumperx
-----------

   This program is a modified version of filedumper that will dump out the
   contents of the intermediate data that is saved by planetsplitter after
   processing using the --keep or --changes option. This is intended
   for test purposes only and gives no useful information about the
   routing database.

   Usage: filedumperx [--version]
                      [--help]
                      [--dir=<dirname>] [--prefix=<name>]
                      [--dump [--nodes]
                              [--ways]
                              [--route-relations]
                              [--turn-relations]]

   --version
          Print the version of Routino.

   --help
          Prints out the help information.

   --dir=<dirname>
          Sets the directory name in which to read the local database.
          Defaults to the current directory.

   --prefix=<name>
          Sets the filename prefix for the files in the local database.

   --dump
          Dumps the complete set of data in the intermediate files that
          are written by planetsplitter using the --keep or --changes
          options.

        --nodes
                Dumps the node data.

        --ways
                Dumps the way data.

        --route-relations
                Dumps the route relation data.

        --turn-relations
                Dumps the turn relation data.
