I am looking to extract some Point of Interest (POI) data from OpenStreetMap in a tabular format. I have used this link navigated to the relevant country and downloaded the file,
http://download.geofabrik.de/
What I get is a file with the .osm.pbf extension. However, I think it is possible to download the files in other formats like .shp.zip and .osm.bz2. Is there some way that I can convert this data into a tabular format like a CSV file?
I came across a tool called Osmosis which can be used to manipulate data in these formats, but I am not sure if it can be used for this purpose,
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmosis
I was able to successfully install in on my Windows machine though.
To be frank, I am not even sure if this gives me what I want.
In essence, what I am looking for is Sri Lankan POI data that contains the following attributes,
https://data.humdata.org/dataset/hotosm_lka_points_of_interest
If the conversion of this file does not give me data in this format, then I am open to other approaches as well? What is the best way to go about acquiring this data?
