Tunisian Health Facilities from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap exports provide health facility locations across Tunisia, including hospitals, clinics, and pharmacies. The data is compiled by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) and last updated in May 2026. Completeness varies by region, with urban areas typically better mapped than remote ones.

Use Cases

• Analyze healthcare service access based on facility type and location.
• Plan emergency response routes based on hospital and clinic locations.
• Map healthcare coverage gaps based on the distribution of amenities.

Strengths

• Covers multiple facility types including hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, doctors, and dentists.
• Available in multiple geospatial formats including GEOPACKAGE, KML, SHP, and GEOJSON.
• Data is licensed under the Open Database License (ODbL-1.0).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Completeness varies by region; urban areas are usually well-mapped, remote areas may be incomplete.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
