Water Features of Liechtenstein from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap exports from 2026 provide water features across Liechtenstein. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) compiled rivers, streams, canals, lakes, and ponds tagged with `waterway`, `water`, or `natural=water`. Completeness varies by region, with urban areas typically better mapped than remote ones.

Use Cases

• Model flood-risk based on mapped rivers, streams, and water bodies.
• Conduct watershed analysis using the network of waterways.
• Provide environmental basemap context for regional planning.
• Cross-reference local field knowledge for data validation in remote areas.

Strengths

• Data is available in multiple geospatial formats including GEOPACKAGE, SHP, and GEOJSON.
• Covers a specific geographic region (Liechtenstein) with features relevant to hydrology.
• Last updated on 2026-05-14, indicating recent data maintenance.

Limitations

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