Macao Sea Ports and Ferry Terminals from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap exports from the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) provide a collection of maritime infrastructure features for China's Macao Special Administrative Region. The dataset includes points of interest tagged as ferry terminals, port facilities, or related buildings, with attributes such as multilingual names and addresses. The data was last updated on March 3, 2026.

Use Cases

• Mapping port and ferry terminal locations based on OpenStreetMap tags.
• Analyzing the distribution of maritime infrastructure based on geospatial coordinates.
• Extracting multilingual place names (English, Chinese, Portuguese) for localization services.
• Validating or enriching commercial maritime datasets based on open-source geodata.

Strengths

• Data is derived from OpenStreetMap, a widely used and collaboratively updated global source.
• Includes multilingual name attributes (name:en, name:zh, name:pt) for localization.
• Available in multiple standard geospatial formats (GeoPackage, GeoJSON, SHP, KML).

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 date is in the future (2026-03-03).
