r5r *not* throwing error for really large areas

[rafapereirabr]

As mentioned in our FAQ, R5 does not process ares where the bbox of the OSM data exceeds the limit of 975000 km2. The expected behavior of {r5r} is to throw and error in these cases. Something lige:

Geographic extent of street layer (5315196 km2) exceeds limit of 975000 km2”

Nonetheless, {r5r} is not throwing this error. Instead, it prints a message saying that the network.dat file has been built, but the file is not written to disk. This has been reported now in different issues, including #389 #405 #406

Thank you for your response. I used a much smaller geographical extent and unfortunately I am still getting the error.

@bigdataforsocialjustice , how exactly did you crop the OSM data to a smaller area?

I used osmconvert64-0.8.8p

@rafapereirabr seems like at some point there will be a blacklist of OSM cropping tools in the {r5r} documentation )

I'm starting to think this could be a good idea lol

@bigdataforsocialjustice , could you please try cropping the OSM data using of the tool we suggest here ?

Hello, I downloaded the software and successfully clipped the larger file to the smaller file. Unfortunately, I still get the same error. It says network.dat finished building but no network.dat is in the directory. Thank you for any further help you can provide.

Just an update: I downloaded the pbf file for the whole state of Georgia and when the setup_r5 finished running it said the network file was created but there was no file and I received the same error. So it happened without any clipping. Thanks again for all your help, and I truly appreciate any further direction. Gia On Tue, Oct 22, 2024 at 5:04 PM Gia Barboza < ***@***.***> wrote:
