Converting OpenStreetMap (OSM) Data to Functional Road Networks for Downstream Applications. (arXiv:2211.12996v1 [cs.DB])

In this work, we study the OpenStreetMap (OSM) data that contains Extensible
Markup Language (XML) formatted data. OpenStreetMap data has many different
formats. OSM XML format is one of them. OSM data has information in the form of
nodes (points), ways (lines and boundaries), and relations (relationships
between two or more nodes or ways). Here, we preprocess OSM XML data to extract

for the Memphis …
