U.S. Virgin Islands Sea Ports and Ferry Terminals from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap exports of sea ports and ferry terminals in the U.S. Virgin Islands, tagged via `amenity`, `building`, or `port`. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) provides the data in multiple geospatial formats. Completeness varies by region, with urban areas likely better mapped than remote ones.

Use Cases

• Mapping maritime logistics networks based on port locations.
• Analyzing coastal access and infrastructure for planning based on ferry terminal data.
• Cross-referencing supply-chain models with geospatial port data.

Strengths

• Data is provided in six geospatial formats (GEOPACKAGE, KML, HTML, SHP, GEOJSON, JSON), offering flexibility for different tools.
• Sourced from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative global mapping project.

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• OpenStreetMap completeness varies; remote areas may be incompletely mapped.
