Use Cases

• Plan evacuation routes based on the mapped network of motorways and residential streets.
• Analyze accessibility to services based on the inclusion of footways and trails.
• Perform routing analysis for vehicles and pedestrians using the comprehensive highway tags.

Strengths

• Includes a wide range of road types from motorways to trails via the `highway` tag.
• Data is available in multiple geospatial formats including GEOPACKAGE, SHP, and JSON.
• Last updated on 2026-05-14, indicating recent maintenance.

Limitations

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