Points of Interest in Djibouti from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap data provides points of interest for Djibouti, including public-facing amenities, shops, tourist attractions, and landmarks. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) exported this data via the HDX platform, last updated on 2026-06-27. Coverage reflects volunteer mapper activity, with urban areas likely well-represented and remote areas potentially sparse.

Use Cases

• Create general POI reference maps based on amenity and tourism tags.
• Conduct urban analysis of service distribution based on shop and amenity locations.
• Enhance basemap detail for navigation or planning tools using landmark data.
• Cross-check field knowledge with mapped infrastructure for humanitarian or development work.

Strengths

• Data is sourced from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map.
• Available in multiple geospatial formats including GEOPACKAGE, SHP, and GEOJSON.
• Explicitly tagged with OpenStreetMap keys for amenity, shop, tourism, and man_made features.

Limitations

• Coverage is uneven, dependent on volunteer mapper activity; remote areas may be sparse.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Freshness should be verified as the last update timestamp is 2026-06-27.
