Description The **Osmosis Polygon Format** is a text-based format used to define geographic boundaries for extracting OpenStreetMap (OSM) data. It is commonly used with **Osmosis**, a command-line tool for processing OSM data. **Format Structure:** - A polygon file starts with the name of the boundary. - Coordinates are listed in a counterclockwise order. - The polygon is closed by repeating the first coordinate. **Usage:** - Used for clipping OSM data to specific regions. - Compatible with Osmosis and other OSM tools. **References:** - OpenStreetMap Wiki: [https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmosis/Polygon_Filter_File_Format](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmosis/Polygon_Filter_File_Format)
