Zimbabwe Financial Services Locations from OpenStreetMap

Zimbabwe's financial service points exported from OpenStreetMap. The data includes banks, ATMs, post offices, money transfer agents, and microfinance branches tagged via the `amenity` key. It was last updated on 2026-05-15 by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team.

Use Cases

• Map financial inclusion based on the distribution of service points like banks and ATMs.
• Plan cash distribution logistics based on the locations of money transfer agents and post offices.
• Analyze economic infrastructure density based on the concentration of financial amenities.
• Cross-reference field data for validation based on the collaborative, crowd-sourced nature of OpenStreetMap.

Strengths

• Covers multiple financial service types explicitly listed: banks, ATMs, post offices, money transfer agents, and microfinance branches.
• Available in multiple geospatial file formats: GEOPACKAGE, KML, HTML, SHP, GEOJSON, JSON.
• Sourced from a free, collaborative global mapping project (OpenStreetMap).

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.
