Using .tpkx files in JOSM

General talk
1

Hello,

I’m working on improving OSM in Lucas County, OH. The Ohio Statewide Imagery program provides very nice aerial imagery with little tree coverage.

I have tracked down the most recent version of this imagery from ArcGIS.

The imagery is available as a .tpkx file. Is it possible to use a file like this as the background imagery in JOSM?

From reading the ArcGIS listing, it seems the imagery license is compatible with the OSM license, but I still wanted to ask around to see if it’s ok to use for work on OSM?

Thank you for any help.

JOSM has a mbtiles plugin and you should be able to convert to mbtiles with tpkutils
GitHub - consbio/tpkutils: ArcGIS Tile Package Utilities · GitHub.

There’s lots of stuff that might go wrong, but it is probably worth a try.

Thanks for the tip, but it seems like .tpkx files are not supported by tpkutils.
