Today I only mapped a small area with service roads and I managed to run my first big PERL program: planetosm-excerpt-area.pl
Don't misunderstand, it's not my program, I didn't create it. But after installation of PERL and a few missing modules it began to crunch planet files.
I plan to use parts of it for my own statistical calculations and maybe own mapsets (i.e. only objects I have contributed). But this is a longer way, not done in a day - at least for me.
Cheers
