Airports and Aviation Infrastructure of Belarus from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap volunteer contributions detail airports, heliports, runways, terminals, and emergency landing sites across Belarus. Coverage likely reflects mapper activity, with urban areas better represented than remote regions. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) exported this data in June 2026.

Use Cases

• Plan evacuation routes based on the network of airports and emergency landing sites.
• Model logistics networks using the locations of airports, heliports, and terminals.
• Assess aerial response capabilities based on the mapped aviation infrastructure.
• Cross-reference local field knowledge with the volunteer-mapped data for critical decisions.

Strengths

• Includes multiple infrastructure types tagged via OpenStreetMap keys: aeroway, building, and emergency.
• Available in multiple geospatial file formats including GEOPACKAGE, SHP, and GEOJSON.
• Data is licensed under the Open Database License (ODbL-1.0).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Coverage may be sparse in remote areas due to reliance on volunteer mapper activity.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
