Albania Railway Lines and Stations from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap data for Albania tagged with `railway`, including rail lines, tram tracks, and stations. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) exported this data, last updated on 2026-05-10. Completeness varies by region, with urban areas likely more detailed than remote areas.

Use Cases

• Analyzing transport network connectivity based on railway line geometry.
• Mapping station locations for accessibility and service area analysis.
• Creating contextual basemaps for regional planning using the included geospatial features.
• Studying the distribution of tram infrastructure versus main rail lines.

Strengths

• Data is provided in multiple geospatial formats (GEOPACKAGE, KML, SHP, GEOJSON, JSON) for flexibility.
• Explicitly includes both railway lines and stations, covering key transport infrastructure elements.
• Sourced from the collaborative OpenStreetMap project and exported by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team.

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Completeness varies by region, which may introduce geographic bias for remote areas.
