Overview

The 2026-06-17.0 release of Overture data and v1.17.0 of the Overture schema are now available. You can access the datasets, changelog, GERS registry, bridge files, and PMTiles on AWS and Azure at the paths listed below.

Deprecations

The categories property in the places schema has been deprecated and will be removed in the September 2026 release, replaced by the new basic_category and taxonomy properties. All three properties will be available until then to ease the transition for our users. The taxonomy documentation is here.

Getting the data and release artifacts

You can access this month's data and release artifacts by following the process outlined in our docs. We encourage you to ask questions and provide feedback on the Overture Maps Discussion forum on GitHub. You can also file issues and report bugs in our data and schema repositories. If you have a suggestion for a new dataset or if you have data you'd like to contribute to Overture, you can email us at community@overturemaps.org. We’d love to hear from you.

Theme-specific updates

info

The base, buildings, divisions, places, and transportation themes are in GA. The addresses theme is in alpha.

Addresses

  • made minor, incremental updates to the data

Base

  • made minor, incremental updates to the data

Buildings

  • made minor, incremental updates to the data

Divisions

  • OSM Cut-Off Date: 2026-06-06

  • The OSM community has updated boundary tags on relations in Czechia and Slovakia, causing coverage at the locality subtype in Czechia and Slovakia to drop significantly. Many of these features remain as the localadmin subtype.

Places

  • Now filtering out places in locations where a feature's country code is not within that country's boundary. This applies everywhere but is most dramatically visible as a massive reduction in features in the ocean.
