Paraguay Road Network from OpenStreetMap for Routing and Analysis

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

Use Cases

• Calculate optimal routes based on the network of motorways, residential streets, and service roads.
• Analyze regional accessibility for services or disaster response based on the road network.
• Plan evacuation routes using the mapped trails and footways.
• Assess transportation infrastructure completeness by comparing urban and remote area mapping.

Strengths

• Includes all OpenStreetMap features tagged with `highway`.
• Available in multiple geospatial formats including GEOPACKAGE, SHP, and JSON.
• Covers the entire country of Paraguay.

Limitations

• Completeness varies by region; urban areas are usually well-mapped, 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.
