Timor-Leste Health Facilities from OpenStreetMap

Timor-Leste health facility locations exported from OpenStreetMap. The data includes hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, doctors, and dentists tagged via `amenity` or `healthcare` keys. It was last updated on 2026-05-15 and is provided by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT).

Use Cases

• Map healthcare service access gaps based on facility locations and types.
• Plan emergency response logistics based on the distribution of hospitals and clinics.
• Analyze the density and types of healthcare amenities across urban and remote regions.

Strengths

• Includes multiple facility types (hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, doctors, dentists).
• Available in multiple geospatial file formats (GEOPACKAGE, SHP, GEOJSON, JSON).
• Data is sourced from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map.

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.
