OpenStreetMap tile server

Installation

Set up and install linux server; we recommend an Debian or Ubuntu LTS server installation
Install Docker CE to the server
- Ubuntu
- Debian
Check the documentation of the openstreetmap-tile-server docker image
Create a docker volume for the OSM data:
```
docker volume create osm-data
```
Download the OSM data (.osm.pbf) from GeoFabrik or similar service for the interested area

Import the downloaded .osm.pbf:

docker run
    -v /absolute/path/to/luxembourg.osm.pbf:/data/region.osm.pbf 
    -v osm-data:/data/database/ 
    overv/openstreetmap-tile-server 
    import

Or download and import the dataset with one command (no extra download required):

docker run \
    -e DOWNLOAD_PBF=https://download.geofabrik.de/europe/luxembourg-latest.osm.pbf \
    -e DOWNLOAD_POLY=https://download.geofabrik.de/europe/luxembourg.poly \
    -v osm-data:/data/database/ \
    overv/openstreetmap-tile-server \
    import

Note: The import is limited to one dataset (one pbf file). If you need more than one country/dataset you have to combine the datasets first with osmium-merge:
```
osmium merge washington.pbf oregon.pbf california.pbf -o westcoast.pbf
```

Finally start the tile server:

docker run 
    --name osm-tile-server
    -p 8080:80 
    -v osm-data:/data/database/ 
    -d overv/openstreetmap-tile-server 
    run
