Mauritania Sea Ports and Ferry Terminals from OpenStreetMap

Sea ports and ferry terminals in Mauritania extracted from OpenStreetMap, tagged via `amenity`, `building`, or `port` keys. The data is compiled by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) and was last updated on 2026-05-14. Completeness of the underlying map data varies by region, with urban areas likely being better mapped than remote locations.

Use Cases

• Plan maritime logistics routes based on port locations.
• Analyze supply-chain resilience based on the distribution of ferry terminals.
• Assess coastal access for planning and development projects.

Strengths

• Data is available in multiple geospatial formats (GEOPACKAGE, KML, SHP, GEOJSON, JSON).
• Derived from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map.
• Last updated on 2026-05-14 20:42:01.771225.

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.
• OpenStreetMap completeness varies by region; remote areas may be incomplete.
