Groningen

Extracts data of Groningen from the OpenstreetMaps project for free

This OpenStreetMap data extract for the Groningen region supports professional GIS workflows including spatial analysis, cartography, and custom navigation app development. The daily updated .pbf file offers a comprehensive, free vector dataset for importing into osm2pgsql or QGIS. For advanced users, a paid ready-to-use QGIS 3 project is available, featuring pre-styled Shapefile or GeoPackage layers and icon sets to accelerate visualization. Groningen is geographically significant as the northernmost province of the Netherlands, featuring a landscape dominated by fertile clay soils and peat bogs rather than sandy dunes.
