Sea Ports and Ferry Terminals in Madagascar from OpenStreetMap

Madagascar's sea ports and ferry terminals exported from OpenStreetMap, tagged via `amenity`, `building`, or `port`. The data was last updated on 2026-05-14 by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT). Completeness of the volunteer-built map varies by region, with urban areas likely being more complete than remote areas.

Use Cases

• Plan maritime logistics routes based on port locations.
• Analyze supply-chain resilience based on port infrastructure.
• Assess coastal access for planning and development.

Strengths

• Data is available in multiple geospatial formats (GEOPACKAGE, KML, SHP, GEOJSON, JSON).
• Last updated on 2026-05-14, suggesting recent maintenance.
• Derived from a well-known, collaborative mapping source (OpenStreetMap).

Limitations

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