Comoros Points of Interest from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap data for Comoros includes public-facing amenities, shops, tourist attractions, and landmarks. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) exported this data, last updated on 2026-05-14. Completeness varies by region, with urban areas likely being better mapped than remote ones.

Use Cases

• Create general POI reference maps based on OpenStreetMap tags.
• Conduct urban analysis based on the distribution of amenities and shops.
• Enrich basemap detail for other geospatial projects using the provided landmarks.

Strengths

• Data is sourced from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map built by volunteers.
• Covers multiple feature types tagged via `amenity`, `shop`, `tourism`, and `man_made` keys.
• Available in multiple geospatial formats including GEOPACKAGE, KML, SHP, and GEOJSON.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
