• for a more simple start, you can also download a single sub-region file from https://download.geofabrik.de/index.html (make sure to get the .osm.pbf format) and then change the regions list in pbf2md.go source code to your downloaded .osm.pbf file, and re-run go build.

• run conversion: ./pbf2md

  • the converted data will be put into a subdirectory for each region
