Description The **PBF (Protocolbuffer Binary Format)** is a compact, binary format used for storing and distributing OpenStreetMap (OSM) data. It is more efficient in terms of size and processing speed compared to the XML-based `.osm` format. **Key Features:** - **Efficient storage:** Smaller file size compared to XML - **Faster processing:** Optimized for high-performance data access - **Used in OSM tools:** Supported by Osmosis, osmconvert, and other OSM processing tools PBF files contain OSM elements such as **nodes, ways, and relations**, and are widely used for large-scale geospatial applications. **References:** - OpenStreetMap Wiki: [https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/PBF_Format](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/PBF_Format) - Official PBF Specification: [https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_PROTOBUF](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_PROTOBUF)
