Loads India OSM PBF from Geofabrik, clips to Bangalore with osmium, imports into PostgreSQL using osm2pgsql and enables PostGIS plus S2 and hstore; queries show exact use of ST_Area, ST_Length, ST_Buffer, ST_Contains/ST_Intersection and ST_Value (raster elevation) to produce ward counts, schools-per-ward and road-lengths, and a pgRouting demo running Dijkstra for shortest paths. QGIS visualizes 1/3/5/10 km buffers; ST_Subdivide is offered as a ST_Subdivide performance tip to speed large polygons. pgRouting Dijkstra and QGIS visualization demos run end-to-end.
