Sea Ports and Ferry Terminals of Colombia from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap data for sea ports and ferry terminals in Colombia, tagged via `amenity`, `building`, or `port`. The dataset is maintained by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) and was last updated on 2026-06-19. Coverage reflects volunteer mapper activity, with urban areas likely better represented than remote regions.

Use Cases

• Optimizing maritime logistics routes based on port locations.
• Analyzing coastal access and supply-chain resilience based on ferry terminal distribution.
• Planning infrastructure development based on the mapped network of ports.

Strengths

• Data is available in multiple geospatial formats (GEOPACKAGE, SHP, KML, GEOJSON, JSON).
• Sourced from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative global mapping project.
• Last updated on 2026 06-19, indicating recent maintenance.

Limitations

• Row count and column definitions are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Coverage is dependent on volunteer mapper activity, potentially creating geographic bias with sparse data in remote areas.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
