Slovenia Water Features from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap data for Slovenia includes rivers, streams, canals, lakes, ponds, and other water bodies. The dataset is an export by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) and was last updated on 2026-05-15. It is useful for flood-risk modelling, watershed analysis, and environmental basemap context.

Use Cases

• Flood-risk modelling based on the spatial distribution of water features.
• Watershed analysis using the network of rivers and streams.
• Creating environmental basemaps for regional planning using water body polygons.

Strengths

• Covers multiple water feature types including rivers, streams, canals, lakes, and ponds.
• Available in multiple geospatial file formats including GEOPACKAGE, KML, SHP, and GEOJSON.
• Sourced from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative global mapping project.

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.
