Export to ESRI Shapefile??

hi,

I’m looking to start a mapping project in The Philippines… is there a way of exporting OpenStreetMap vectors to ESRI Shapefile format?

thanks,
AlD

hi,

I did some more research and found that OpenStreetMap vectors for the Philippines (and a load of other countries) are available already prepared on the GeoFabrik website: http://download.geofabrik.de/osm/

This is a brilliant resource!

thanks,
AlD

Here is another source of OSM data in various formats, including shapefiles:

I would still like to know if there is a convertor or conversion process defined because I would like to convert some OSM that I have edited locally for my own purpose. If anyone can give advice, I would appreciate it.

Many thanks,
