French Polynesia Points of Interest from OpenStreetMap

An OpenStreetMap export of public-facing amenities, shops, tourist attractions, and landmarks across French Polynesia. The data is contributed by volunteers and maintained by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT), with a last update timestamp of 2026-05-14. Completeness varies, with urban areas likely being more detailed than remote regions.

Use Cases

• Create general POI reference maps based on the `amenity`, `shop`, `tourism`, and `man_made` tags.
• Conduct urban analysis of amenity distribution and accessibility using the geospatial point data.
• Enhance basemap detail for navigation or tourism applications with landmarks and tourist attractions.

Strengths

• Data is sourced from OpenStreetMap, a widely-used collaborative mapping project.
• Covers multiple POI categories (`amenity`, `shop`, `tourism`, `man_made`) for a specific geography.
• Available in multiple geospatial file formats (GEOPACKAGE, SHP, GEOJSON, JSON).

Limitations

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