Romanian Points of Interest from OpenStreetMap for Urban Analysis

OpenStreetMap exports for Romania contain points of interest tagged via `amenity`, `shop`, `tourism`, or `man_made`. The data is compiled by volunteer contributors via the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team and was last updated on 2026-05-14. Completeness varies by region, with urban areas likely being more detailed than remote ones.

Use Cases

• Create general POI reference maps based on OpenStreetMap tags.
• Conduct urban analysis of amenity distribution and accessibility.
• Enhance basemap detail for Romanian regions.
• Analyze tourism infrastructure based on `tourism` and `man_made` features.

Strengths

• Covers multiple POI categories via established OpenStreetMap tagging schemas (`amenity`, `shop`, `tourism`, `man_made`).
• Available in multiple geospatial formats (GEOPACKAGE, KML, SHP, GEOJSON, JSON).
• Data is openly licensed under ODbL-1.0.

Limitations

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