An R interface to OpenStreetMap API v0.6 for fetching and saving raw geodata from/to the OpenStreetMap database. This package allows to access OSM maps data as well as map notes, GPS traces, changelogs and users data. To access the OSM map data for purposes other than editing or exploring the history of the objects see Related packages.
You are responsible for following the API Usage
Policy. You can modify the user agent of the requests by setting the
option osmapir.user_agent
:
options(osmapir.user_agent = "my new user agent")
Respect and follow the standards and conventions of the OpenStreetMap community. If you plan to do automated edits, check the Automated Edits code of conduct.

is the only package to access other OSM data
than the maps data (map notes, GPS traces, changelogs and users). It can
be also useful to get the history of the OSM objects and is the only
package that allows editing and upload any kind of data.
To access the OSM map data for purposes other than editing or
exploring the history of the objects, perhaps is better to use the other
packages that implements the Overpass API (osmdata) or that
works with .pbf
files (osmextract).
