Airports and Helipads in Bouvet Island from OpenStreetMap

Bouvet Island's aviation infrastructure is mapped in this dataset, which includes all OpenStreetMap features tagged as aerodromes, aeroways, helipads, or landing sites. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) compiled this data, and it was last updated on 2026-05-05. Features likely contain attributes such as name, aeroway type, operator, capacity, and address.

Use Cases

• Map aviation infrastructure locations based on aeroway and building tags.
• Analyze facility capacity based on the capacity:persons attribute.
• Identify operator types for facilities based on the operator:type field.
• Cross-reference location names using multilingual name tags (name:en, name:no).
• Verify data sources and completeness using the source attribute.

Strengths

• Data is sourced from the community-driven OpenStreetMap project.
• Includes multiple geospatial file formats (KML, GEOJSON, SHP, GEOPACKAGE) for interoperability.
• Last updated date is precisely recorded as 2026-05-05 21:19:55.350373.

Limitations

• Row count and dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to OpenStreetMap volunteer contributions.
