OSMEvolution V0.1 [UNDER CONSTRUCTION] 🌍 📈

A package for receiving and restructuring OSM historic object data conveniently. Works for arbitrary OSM objects and all cities.

Installation

Currently under construction so install from source to avoid old bugs.

$ pip install git+git://github.com/le0x99/OSMEvolution.git

Usage

from OSMEvolution.collect import DataCollector

# Initialize the data collector for the desired city.

>>> collector = DataCollector(city="Berlin")  

# Retrieve static data of the objects of interest (OOI).
# The object is defined by
      # 1. its object type (according to the OSM spatial data model).
      # 2. its object properties.
      
      
# As an example, we request the data for restaurants in Berlin, whose "amenity"-key was valued as "restaurant".
# More granular queries can be done by adding properties to the properties list.


>>> collector.get_objects(object_type="node", properties=["amenity=restaurant"])

# The descriptive (static) data of the objects of interest can now be accessed.
# The static data is a pandas DataFrame object.

>>> static_data = collector.data.get("static").copy()
>>> static_data.head()

         id  ...                  location
0  26735749  ...   (52.506911, 13.3228214)

4  30020303  ...  (52.4907103, 13.3939814)


# Now the historic data of the selected objects are requested, aggregated and restructured.
# To construct a proper time series, we need to specify the frequency of the series, here we choose monthly data.
>>> collector.build_timeseries(frequency="m")

# Plotting, as usual using pandas.DataFrame methods.

# Looking at all timeseries'
>>> timeseries.plot(grid=True, title="monthly development", ylim=(0, 1000))

# Object Evolution (created objects)
>>> timeseries.create.plot(grid=True, title="Created Objects per month");timeseries.create.cumsum().plot(grid=True, secondary_y=True);plt.ylabel("Cumulative")

# Delta distribution for the two major variables, create and modify
>>> timeseries[["create", "modify"]].diff().hist(bins=15);plt.suptitle("Distribution of $\delta_t$")

Further Examples

Schools of New York

from OSMEvolution.collect import DataCollector

>>> collector = DataCollector(city="New York")

>>> collector.get_objects(object_type="node", properties=["amenity=school"])

>>> collector.build_timeseries(frequency="m")

To Do and future work

• buildin Forecasting methods
• option to impute outliers
• MultiObject requests
