city of Buenos Aires

Extracts data of city of Buenos Aires from the OpenstreetMaps project for free

OpenStreetMap vector data for the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires is essential for high-precision mapping, navigation applications, and spatial analysis within Argentina's capital. This region, the administrative seat of the country, is distinguished by its layout as a single autonomous district with a unique urban fabric not strictly bound by the surrounding Buenos Aires Province. GIS professionals and developers can utilize this free, daily-updated .pbf extract to ingest the city's road network, points of interest, and administrative boundaries into tools like osm2pgsql, QGIS, or custom mapping applications. For advanced workflows, a ready-to-use QGIS 3 project is available, featuring professionally styled Shapefile or GeoPackage layers and icon sets to expedite cartographic production and thematic visualization.
