Kosovo Health Facilities from OpenStreetMap with Names and Addresses

An OpenStreetMap export from 2026-03-03 includes all features in Kosovo tagged as healthcare facilities, such as hospitals, clinics, and pharmacies. The dataset, provided by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team, likely contains attributes like name, address, building type, and healthcare specialty. It is available in multiple geospatial formats including SHP and GEOJSON.

Use Cases

• Map healthcare facility locations based on geospatial coordinates.
• Analyze facility types and specializations based on the healthcare and amenity tags.
• Assess the distribution of services using address and city attributes.
• Verify or augment existing health facility registries using OpenStreetMap-sourced names and capacities.

Strengths

• Includes multiple name attributes (name, name:en, name:sq, name:sr) which may support multilingual applications.
• Covers a defined range of facility types based on the healthcare and amenity tags described.
• Available in four standard geospatial file formats (SHP, GEOJSON, GEOPACKAGE, KML).

Limitations

• Row count is 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).
