Iceland Sea Ports and Ferry Terminals from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap exports provide sea ports and ferry terminals tagged via `amenity`, `building`, or `port`. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) maintains this dataset, last updated in May 2026. Completeness varies by region, with urban areas likely being more detailed than remote coastal locations.

Use Cases

• Plan maritime logistics routes based on port locations.
• Analyze supply-chain networks based on ferry terminal connectivity.
• Assess coastal access and infrastructure for planning purposes.

Strengths

• Data is available in multiple geospatial formats including GEOPACKAGE, KML, and GEOJSON.
• The dataset is derived from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map.

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.
