Bouvet Island Sea Ports and Ferry Terminals from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap exports for Bouvet Island include features tagged as ports or ferry terminals. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team compiled this data, which was last updated on May 5, 2026. Features likely contain attributes such as name, address, operator type, and source.

Use Cases

• Map maritime infrastructure locations based on ferry terminal and port tags.
• Analyze port operator types based on the operator:type attribute.
• Geocode port addresses for logistics planning based on addr:full and addr:city fields.
• Validate or augment nautical charts using the named port features.

Strengths

• Data is sourced from the collaborative OpenStreetMap project.
• Includes multiple geographic file formats (KML, GEOJSON, SHP, GEOPACKAGE) for interoperability.
• Explicitly filters for port-related features (ferry_terminal, port) ensuring thematic focus.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to OpenStreetMap contributions for remote areas.
