North Macedonia Road Network from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap exports provide a road network across North Macedonia. The data includes features tagged with `highway`, such as motorways, residential streets, service roads, footways, and trails. It was last updated on 2026-05-14 and is maintained by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team.

Use Cases

• Plan evacuation routes based on the mapped road hierarchy.
• Analyze accessibility to services based on the network of residential streets and footways.
• Model traffic flow using the classification of motorways and service roads.

Strengths

• Covers a comprehensive range of road types, from motorways to trails, as specified by the `highway` tag.
• Available in multiple geospatial file formats, including GEOPACKAGE, SHP, and JSON.
• Data is sourced from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map.

Limitations

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