Global Stations

This layer contains information about train stations, bus stations and ferry terminals in some countries where WFP operates. The data are collected and reported either by the COs officers or other external sources (OSM data, Bing maps, Global Discovery etc.) Along with the location the dataset contains information related to the current status of each station/terminal (Open, Unknown), the size of the station etc.

IMPORTANT: Note that the location precision and the date of the obstacles is described in the attribute table for each feature. Please use this information carefully and check that the information is up-to-date. Feel free to contribute to this dataset by contacting hq.gis@wfp.org.
