Use Cases

• Mapping the geographic distribution of healthcare facilities based on location and type attributes.
• Analyzing healthcare service capacity using the optional capacity:persons field.
• Identifying facility operators and specialties for market or network analysis based on operator:type and healthcare:speciality tags.
• Geocoding and address validation for facilities using the addr:full and addr:city fields.

Strengths

• Includes multiple healthcare facility types (doctors, dentist, clinic, hospital, pharmacy) as defined by OpenStreetMap tags.
• Provides potential attributes for names, addresses, building types, and specialties, offering structured detail.
• Available in multiple geospatial formats (GEOJSON, SHP, GEOPACKAGE, KML) for tool flexibility.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data completeness and accuracy depend on OpenStreetMap contributor input, which may be uneven.
