 This is the parent [_pom_ file](https://maven.apache.org/pom.html) of the [ohsome platform](https://www.ohsome.org/). It defines the topmost properties of all subprojects like the [OSHDB](https://github.com/GIScience/oshdb) or the [ohsome API](https://github.com/GIScience/ohsome-api).
 
 It stores a general [.gitignore](.gitignore), [Jenkinsfile](Jenkinsfile.template) and [checkstyle rules](ohsome-codestyle/src/main/resources/checkstyle-google-ohsome.xml), to be used by all java/maven projects within the ohsome platform.
