Financial Services in Ireland from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap exports provide locations of financial amenities across Ireland. The data includes banks, ATMs, post offices, money transfer agents, and microfinance branches tagged via the `amenity` key. Compiled by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team, this dataset was last updated on 2026-05-14.

Use Cases

• Map financial inclusion based on the distribution of banks and microfinance branches.
• Plan cash distribution networks based on ATM and post office locations.
• Conduct economic analysis using the spatial density of financial service points.

Strengths

• Includes multiple financial service types (banks, ATMs, post offices, money transfer agents, microfinance branches).
• Available in multiple geospatial file formats (GEOPACKAGE, KML, HTML, SHP, GEOJSON, JSON).
• Sourced from the collaborative OpenStreetMap project.

Limitations

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