UAE Sea Ports and Ferry Terminals from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap exports provide sea ports and ferry terminals for the United Arab Emirates, tagged via `amenity`, `building`, or `port`. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) compiled this data, last updated on 2026-05-13. Completeness varies by region, with urban areas typically better mapped than remote locations.

Use Cases

• Optimizing maritime logistics routes based on port locations.
• Analyzing coastal access for supply-chain planning based on ferry terminal data.
• Mapping maritime infrastructure for regional development planning based on OSM tags.

Strengths

• Data is available in multiple geospatial formats including GEOPACKAGE, KML, SHP, and GEOJSON.
• Last updated on 2026-05-13, suggesting recent maintenance.

Limitations

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