Belize Railway Features and Stations from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap features for Belize matching railway tags, including 'rail' and 'station'. The dataset is an export from the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) and was last updated on 2026-05-05. It includes attributes such as name, elevation, operator type, and address details.

Use Cases

• Map railway network coverage in Belize based on the 'railway' tag.
• Analyze the distribution of railway stations based on location and address attributes.
• Study railway infrastructure operators using the 'operator:type' attribute.
• Integrate railway data with other geospatial layers for transportation planning.

Strengths

• Data is sourced from OpenStreetMap, a collaborative global mapping project.
• Includes multiple geospatial file formats (KML, GEOJSON, SHP, GEOPACKAGE) for flexibility.
• Attributes likely contain structured information like names, addresses, and elevation.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Freshness should be verified as the last update is listed as a future date (2026-05-05).
