OpenStreetMap friends. Not being very technical, I’m struggling to use Overpass or turbo). I would like to download a global dataset of landuse=allotments (maybe in chunks) for a project idea. Can anyone help?

#osm

@stevenfeldman Mmh, not sure if overpass is the best tool as there seem to be >400k objects, https://taginfo.openstreetmap.org/tags/landuse=allotments

What about osmium?

```
osmium tags-filter switzerland-latest.osm.pbf \
w/r landuse=allotments \
-o allotments.osm.pbf
osmium export allotments.osm.pbf -o allotments.geojson
```

@stevenfeldman I tried it for Switzerland. Obviously, the downside is that you need to download the whole planet file.
What I need is a point for each allotment with the area and maybe the name
@stevenfeldman Continuing on the command-line interface path, this could be accomplished using ogr2ogr and an SQL expression. Area calculation would need a proper projection.
I think I’ll have to download in chunks and then process in QGIS
@stevenfeldman you're using tools that would take you more time. If you can live with at, ok, but `ogr2ogr` is a much faster solution (granted, once you learned how to use it).
Presumably I still need to download the planer file?
