Bhutan Points of Interest from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap exports provide points of interest for Bhutan, including public-facing amenities, shops, tourist attractions, and landmarks. The data is compiled by volunteer mappers and hosted by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team. The dataset was last updated on 2026-05-14.

Use Cases

• Create reference maps for Bhutan based on tagged amenities and landmarks.
• Analyze urban service distribution based on the presence of shops and public amenities.
• Support tourism applications by identifying attractions tagged under tourism categories.

Strengths

• Data is sourced from OpenStreetMap, a widely-used global collaborative mapping project.
• Includes features tagged under four major OSM key categories: amenity, shop, tourism, and man_made.

Limitations

• Completeness varies by region; urban areas are usually well-mapped while remote areas may be incomplete.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
