The data version is Release Overture 2023-07-26-alpha.0.
The license for buildings is ODbL, while for places it is CDLA-Permissive 2.0.
The data is enriched with ISTAT ids and released in geopackage format.
In this repository there is also the dataset of the non-generalized Italian municipal borders at 2023 of ISTAT (CC-BY license) in geoparquet format.

process description

all data is incorporated into a duckdb file on which the following SQL operations are then performed

• extraction from the downloaded parquet files into a duckdb table taking into account the bounding box of Italy with a buffer of 5km
• from the created table, a new table is created with a selection of columns so that each contains only one value. E.g. for names you choose the languages of Italian, English, German and French
• the table is enriched with new columns corresponding to ISTAT codes through a spatial relationship with the geometries of Italian municipalities
• based on these attributes, data are extracted at the level of each Italian region

execution

prepare data

bash script

duckdb omf_italy -c ".read 00_prepare_tables_istat.sql"

create geopackages of the places for earch region of Italy

bash script

duckdb omf_italy -c ".read 01_extraction_places_italy.sql"

create geopackages of the buildings for earch region of Italy

duckdb omf_italy -c ".read 02_extraction_buildings_italy.sql"

assign the SRS to each file

bash script

for i in `ls *.gpkg`;
  do
    name=`basename $i .gpkg`;
    tmpname=`echo $name`_tmp.gpkg;
    echo "assign WGS84 to $i";
    ogr2ogr -a_srs EPSG:4326 -f "GPKG" $tmpname $i;
    mv $tmpname $i;
    echo "done!";
done
