Durham

Extracts data of Durham from the OpenstreetMaps project for free

This OpenStreetMap vector data extract for Durham provides essential resources for GIS professionals, developers, and researchers conducting spatial analysis, cartography, or navigation app development within the region. The dataset offers a daily updated .pbf file suitable for import into osm2pgsql or direct visualization in QGIS, ensuring access to current infrastructure details. For users requiring immediate visualization, a paid option includes a ready-to-use QGIS 3 project featuring pre-styled Shapefile or GeoPackage layers and icon sets, streamlining the workflow. Durham is characterised by its dramatic topography, defined by the winding River Wear which carves through the city center and forms the steep valley housing the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Durham Castle and Cathedral.
