About OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap offers an online map (and spatial database) which is updated by the minute. Various tools and services allow data extracts for GIS specialists, Routable Garmin GPS data, Smartphone GPS navigation, and other device-compatible downloads. With an internet connection, regular syncing is possible with open access to the community contributed data as it comes in, with OpenStreetMap's bulk data downloads ideal for use offline. In addition, maps can also be printed to paper.

Browse the (example) Activation Area to get a feel for the data that is currently available. Different map styles including an Humanitarian style can be selected on the right side, and some data may not render (appear) on the map, but could be exported from the underlying database (See export section below).

Exporting OpenStreetMap data

See Downloading data for instructions on getting large scale map data, or see the focused exports below:

• A custom export is available on the HOT Export Tool
• Regularly updated OpenStreetMap exports are available on the Humanitarian Data eXchange (HDX)

For Mappers

• Example: HOT Coordinator(s) requesting remote mapping assistance for estimated 2 week mapping response
