Sri Lanka streets and pathways

This dataset is an extraction of streets and pathways from OpenStreetMap data made by WFP that follow UNSDIT standards. The data is updated in near-real time from OSM servers and include all latest updates. NOTE: this dataset doesn't include main roads that have been published on a separate dataset (main roads).

More documentation on the whole process for extracting OpenStreetMap roads can be found here: https://geonode.wfp.org/documents/6823/download
