Bahrain Financial Services from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap exports for Bahrain include banks, ATMs, post offices, money transfer agents, and microfinance branches tagged via the `amenity` key. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) maintains this data, last updated on 2026-05-14. Completeness varies by region, with urban areas likely better mapped than remote ones.

Use Cases

• Map financial service accessibility based on amenity point locations.
• Plan cash distribution infrastructure based on ATM and bank locations.
• Analyze economic activity patterns based on the density of financial service points.

Strengths

• Data is available in multiple geospatial formats including GEOPACKAGE, KML, SHP, and GEOJSON.
• The dataset is built from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Completeness varies by region; urban areas are usually well-mapped, remote areas may be incomplete.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
