El Salvador Financial Services Locations from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap exports provide a volunteer-built map of financial amenities across El Salvador. The data includes banks, ATMs, post offices, money transfer agents, and microfinance branches tagged via the `amenity` key. Completeness varies by region, with urban areas likely being better mapped than remote ones.

Use Cases

• Map financial service accessibility based on the presence of banks and ATMs.
• Plan cash distribution networks for humanitarian aid based on money transfer agent locations.
• Analyze economic activity and service density using tagged microfinance branches and post offices.

Strengths

• Data is available in multiple geospatial formats including GEOPACKAGE, SHP, and GEOJSON.
• Derived from a large, collaborative mapping project with global coverage.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Completeness varies by region, with remote areas potentially being incomplete.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
