Mexico buildings and infrastructure data

Education facilities: schools, kindergartens, colleges, and universities tagged via `amenity` or `building`. Useful for school-access mapping, education planning, and resource allocation. Coverage reflects where volunteer mappers have been active. Urban areas are usually well represented, remote areas may be sparse. Cross-check critical decisions with local field knowledge. - Source: OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map - Tags: amenity, building - Part of the country exports on HDX by HOT

Building footprints across the area: every feature tagged `building=*`, from residential homes to hospitals, schools, and places of worship.

This map illustrates satellite-detected, potentially damaged structures in the town of Atzala, Atzala Municipality, Puebla State, Mexico. The analysed area is located approximately 7 km west of the mainshock epicentre of the 19 September M 7.1 earthquake. UNITAR-UNOSAT identified 91 potentially damaged structures of which 78 are within the town extent. Taking in account the total 559 pre-event structures in Atzala town, 14% of the structures are likely to be damaged. These analyses was performed using a post-event Pleiades satellite image acquired on 22 September 2017 and a pre-event WorldView-2 satellite image acquired on 11 April 2017. This is a preliminary analysis and has not yet been validated in the field. Please send ground feedback to UNITAR - UNOSAT.

Información correspondiente a las áreas trabajadas en el Mapatón Nacional de México para el año 2025

This dataset contains building footprints mapped in OpenStreetMap as part of the LATAM Regional Mapatón 2026 in Mexico. The data were generated by volunteers participating in the regional mapping campaign conducted from 13 June to 31 July 2026. The mapping focused on priority areas identified according to disaster risk exposure and vulnerability. The resulting open geospatial data can support disaster preparedness, risk analysis, local planning and climate change adaptation.
