A universal QML style set for OSM Geofabrik Shapefile extracts for use in QGIS
The current version is still far from beeing finished, but will be updated regulary.
This is a style set for QGIS in .qml format for osm extracts in shapefile format from http://download.geofabrik.de/.
QGIS 3.4 or later is required to run this set as intended. When using older versions some styles might not work as intended.
Download the repository and create your QGIS Project in the main folder, or just use ExampleProject.qgs. Add your OSM data downloaded from http://download.geofabrik.de/ as .shp.zip format and unpack it to Geofabrikdata folder. Now add the .qml files via right-clicking on each layer -> properties -> style -> load style (Not necessary when using ExampleProject.qgs). Of course you can also use another folder structure. To keep symbols just open the .qml files with a texteditor and replace all paths. Suggested layerorder:
I often need vector maps based on osm data. As ive done a new map (and style) everytime I started a new project I decided to create a style I can use for all places in the world in all scales. A criteria is, that no data shall be modified neither new layers created. Goal is to just download data, add styles and done. Of course achiving this goal is a giant task. So feel free to help and improve this project. Modify, adapt, improve and re-share!
Symbols are mainly taken from here https://www.mapbox.com/maki-icons/, some are self made. Also I got some inspiration (besides from OSM itself) from these two projects: https://github.com/yannos/Beautiful_OSM_in_QGIS and https://github.com/charleyglynn/OSM-Shapefile-QGIS-stylesheets. So I used e.g. the same scale ranges or similar stylings for buildings/shadows.
