Saint Barthélemy Railway Infrastructure: OpenStreetMap Geospatial Export

Geospatial infrastructure data for Saint Barthélemy containing OpenStreetMap features tagged as 'railway' or 'station', exported by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT). Updated in March 2026, the collection provides localized attributes across five GIS-compatible file formats including SHP and GeoJSON.

Use Cases

• Identifying transportation nodes using the 'railway' and 'station' tags
• Spatial analysis of infrastructure elevation using the 'ele' field
• Localized mapping projects utilizing 'name:fr' and 'addr:city' for French-speaking contexts

Strengths

• Available in five GIS formats including SHP, KML, and GeoPackage
• Includes multilingual name tags for English and French labels
• Provides vertical context through 'ele' and 'layer' attributes

Limitations

• Extremely limited record count due to the small geographic area and lack of major rail networks in Saint Barthélemy
• Data accuracy is dependent on volunteer contributions to OpenStreetMap
