Airports and Aviation Infrastructure of Azerbaijan from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap volunteer mappers have tagged airports, heliports, runways, terminals, and emergency landing sites across Azerbaijan. Coverage likely reflects mapper activity, with urban areas well represented and remote areas potentially sparse. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) exports this data under the ODbL license, last updated in June 2026.

Use Cases

• Plan evacuation routes based on mapped emergency landing sites.
• Analyze aviation infrastructure density for logistics planning based on tagged aeroway features.
• Cross-reference aerial response capabilities based on the locations of airports and helipads.
• Assess geographic coverage gaps for remote area mapping based on the description of volunteer mapper activity.

Strengths

• Data is sourced from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map.
• Includes multiple feature types: airports, heliports, runways, terminals, and emergency landing sites.
• Available in multiple geospatial formats including GEOPACKAGE, SHP, and GEOJSON.
• Last updated on 2026-06-26 01:25:57.461912.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Coverage is dependent on volunteer mapper activity, leading to potential urban-rural disparities.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
