Guyana Railways and Stations from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap exports for Guyana contain geospatial features matching railway and station tags. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) provides this data, which was last updated on 2026-03-03. Features may include attributes such as name, elevation, operator type, and address details.

Use Cases

• Map railway network coverage in Guyana based on the 'railway' tag.
• Identify and geolocate train stations based on the 'name' and 'addr:full' attributes.
• Analyze infrastructure elevation profiles based on the 'ele' (elevation) attribute.
• Study railway operator types and management structures based on the 'operator:type' attribute.

Strengths

• Data is provided in multiple geospatial formats: GEOJSON, SHP, GEOPACKAGE, KML.
• Dataset is licensed under the Open Database License (ODbL-1.0).
• Features are derived from a collaborative mapping source (OpenStreetMap).

Limitations

• Row count and dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Freshness should be verified as the last update date is in the future (2026-03-03).
