A set of Python libraries to read binary MAPS.ME files

mwm.py

It is a python library to read contents of MAPS.ME mwm files. Not everything is supported, but you can get at least all the features and their attributes. We at MAPS.ME use this script to do analytics and maintenance.

Installation

pip install mwm

Usage

Just add import mwm to your script, and read an mwm file with:

with open('file.mwm', 'rb') as f:
    data = mwm.MWM(f)

Tools

The package installs the mwmtool command-line script. It shows statistics about an MWM file, can search for features or convert ids. Run it with -h to see a list of options.

The script source can serve as a library usage example.
