Lithuania Points of Interest from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap exports provide points of interest across Lithuania, including amenities, shops, and landmarks. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) compiled this data from a global volunteer-built map. Completeness varies, with urban areas likely being more detailed than remote regions.

Use Cases

• Create reference maps for Lithuania based on OSM-tagged amenities and shops.
• Analyze urban service distribution based on public-facing amenities.
• Enrich tourism applications with landmarks and attractions tagged via tourism keys.

Strengths

• Covers multiple POI categories via established OSM tagging schemas (amenity, shop, tourism, man_made).
• Available in multiple geospatial formats (GEOPACKAGE, KML, SHP, GEOJSON, JSON).
• Data is licensed under the Open Database License (ODbL-1.0).

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Completeness varies by region; remote areas may be incomplete according to the source description.
