Bulgarian Airports and Aviation Infrastructure from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap data for airports, heliports, runways, terminals, and emergency landing sites in Bulgaria, tagged via `aeroway`, `building`, or `emergency` keys. The dataset was last updated on 2026-06-26 and is provided by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT). Coverage reflects volunteer mapper activity, with urban areas likely better represented than remote regions.

Use Cases

• Plan logistics routes based on airport and helipad locations.
• Model evacuation scenarios using emergency landing site data.
• Analyze aviation infrastructure density and distribution across Bulgaria.

Strengths

• Includes multiple infrastructure types (airports, helipads, runways, terminals).
• Data is available in multiple geospatial formats (GEOPACKAGE, SHP, KML, GEOJSON).
• Sourced from the collaborative OpenStreetMap project.

Limitations

• Coverage is uneven, with sparse data likely in remote areas.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
