Thailand Sea Ports and Ferry Terminals from OpenStreetMap

Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team provides a geospatial dataset of sea ports and ferry terminals in Thailand. The data includes features tagged as 'ferry_terminal' or with a 'port' key in OpenStreetMap, with attributes such as name, address, and operator type. The dataset was last updated on 2026-05-05 and is available in multiple geospatial file formats.

Use Cases

• Mapping maritime transport networks based on the presence of 'port' and 'ferry_terminal' tags.
• Analyzing the distribution of port operators based on the 'operator:type' attribute.
• Geocoding port facilities for navigation or supply chain applications using the 'addr:full' and 'addr:city' fields.
• Studying multilingual place names for ports using the 'name:en' and 'name:th' attributes.

Strengths

• Data is sourced from OpenStreetMap, a collaborative and openly licensed geographic database.
• Includes multilingual name attributes ('name:en', 'name:th') for international and local reference.
• Available in four common geospatial formats: KML, GEOJSON, SHP, and GEOPACKAGE.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
