Example:

v.in.osm input=name

grass.script.run_command("v.in.osm", input, output=None, where=None, type="point,line,boundary,centroid", table=None, flags=None, overwrite=False, verbose=False, quiet=False, superquiet=False)

Example:

gs.run_command("v.in.osm", input="name")

Parameters

input=name [required]

where=sql_query
    WHERE conditions of SQL statement without 'where' keyword
    Example: income < 1000 and population >= 10000
type=string [,string,...]
    Name for output vector map
    Allowed values: point, line, boundary, centroid
    Default: point,line,boundary,centroid
table=name
    Name of attribute table
-o

DESCRIPTION

v.in.osm imports OpenStreetMap data.

EXAMPLES

Import from PostgreSQL DB:

v.in.osm input="PG:host=localhost dbname=gis user=ostepok" table=planet_osm_line \
         type=point,line output=roads where="highway is not null"

Import from OSM PBF file:

v.in.osm input=saarland-latest.osm.pbf table=lines type=point,line output=roads \
         where="highway is not null"

REQUIREMENTS

PostgreSQL, PostGIS, osm2pgsql
