South Korean Sea Ports and Ferry Terminals from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap exports provide sea ports and ferry terminals tagged via `amenity`, `building`, or `port` keys. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) maintains this export on HDX, last updated on 2026-05-14. Completeness varies by region, with urban areas likely being well-mapped and remote areas potentially incomplete.

Use Cases

• Model maritime supply-chain networks based on port locations.
• Plan coastal access and infrastructure development based on ferry terminal data.
• Analyze regional port density and distribution for logistics planning.

Strengths

• Data is provided in multiple geospatial formats including GEOPACKAGE, SHP, and GEOJSON.
• The dataset is derived from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map.

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.
