Djibouti Road Network from OpenStreetMap

A geospatial dataset of the road network across Djibouti, exported from OpenStreetMap. It includes all features tagged with `highway`, such as motorways, residential streets, service roads, footways, and trails. The data is provided by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) and was last updated on 2026-05-15.

Use Cases

• Plan evacuation routes based on the mapped highway network.
• Analyze transportation accessibility based on the classification of roads, footways, and trails.
• Perform routing analysis for logistics based on the complete road network.

Strengths

• Includes all OpenStreetMap features tagged with `highway`, covering a range of road types.
• Data is provided in multiple geospatial formats (GEOPACKAGE, SHP, JSON).

Limitations

• Completeness varies by region; urban areas are usually well-mapped, but remote areas may be incomplete.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
