Points of interest: public-facing amenities, shops, tourist attractions, and landmarks tagged via `amenity`, `shop`, `tourism`, or `man_made`. Useful for general POI reference, urban analysis, and basemap detail. 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, shop, tourism, man_made - Part of the country exports on HDX by HOT
