About

At data.nextgis.com service we use OpenStreetMap and a few other open and public domain sources to create regularly updated spatial datasets for any area of the world. The datasets are provided in ESRI Shapefile, ESRI Geodatabase, Mapinfo TAB, GeoJSON and PDF formats and can be used in most of the existing GIS.

All datasets at data.nextgis.com are published under the Open Database License (ODBL). Read what you can and cannot do with this data in this Legal FAQ.

Coordinate system: WGS84
Projection: latitude/longitude
