Brazilian Sea Ports and Ferry Terminals from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap volunteers provide a free, collaborative map of sea ports and ferry terminals across Brazil. Completeness varies by region, with urban areas likely being well-mapped and remote areas potentially incomplete. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) exported this data, which was last updated on 2026-05-15.

Use Cases

• Modeling maritime supply chains based on port locations.
• Planning coastal access and infrastructure based on ferry terminal data.
• Analyzing transportation network connectivity based on amenity and port features.

Strengths

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

Limitations

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