Extract Australia data in a usable format from Microsoft road detections data

extract_aus.sh

#!/bin/bash
# see https://github.com/microsoft/RoadDetections

# 1) get the data
wget https://usaminedroads.blob.core.windows.net/road-detections/Oceania-Full.zip

# 2) extract the records for Australia, second column of tsv only 
zgrep AUS Oceania-Full.zip | cut -f2 > AUS.geojson

# 3) convert to GPKG, works better in QGIS
ogr2ogr -f GPKG Oceania_AUS.gpkg AUS.geojson

#PowerShell

# 1) get the data
curl.exe -O https://usaminedroads.blob.core.windows.net/road-detections/Europe-Full.zip

# 2) extract the records for Estonia, second column of tsv only
Expand-Archive Europe-Full.zip
Select-String -Path Europe-Full\Europe-Full.tsv -Pattern 'EST' -CaseSensitive |  ForEach-Object { ([string]$_).Split("`t")[1] } > EST.geojson

Trying to convert this to geoparquet file, https://github.com/tschaub/gpq

zipgrep -i "type" Europe-Full.zip | cut -f2 > europe.geojson
and then
./gpq convert europe.geojson europe.parquet, but having issues.

Dear Kirken, i have extracted road network from Greece, but i cant load it in QGIS. I believe that the derived geojson file is not valid. Do you have a solution ? Thank you very much and a happy new year.

Yep, it produces Newline-delimited GeoJSON
Try this:

2. extract the records for Estonia, second column of tsv only

> $output1 = "{ ""type"": ""FeatureCollection"", ""features"": ["
> $output2 = Select-String -Path Europe-Full.tsv -Pattern 'EST' -CaseSensitive | ForEach-Object { ([string]$_).Split("`t")[1] +","}
> $output3 = "]}"
> $output1 + $output2 + $output3 | Out-File  EST.geojson -NoNewline

NB: you have to delete manually the very last comma at the end of the file before the closing "]}" (or enhance the script)

you can check the result here: https://geojson.io/
it also says if there are any syntax errors and what they are. If you succeed there but still cannot open or convert it in QGIS, then download / save GEOJSON file from there and try to open / covert that one.

when running the following code ogr2ogr -f GPKG Oceania_AUS.gpkg AUS.geojson

Could you please help with that?

AUS.geojson file has only text: Binary file Oceania-Full.zip matches

How would I run this to convert a full dataset (such as South America) without extracting a country? I played around with the command and cannot figure it out. Any help would be tremendously appreciated!!!
