Cuban Airports and Aviation Infrastructure from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap data for Cuba includes airports, heliports, helipads, runways, terminals, and emergency landing sites. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) exported this data, last updated on 2026-05-14. Completeness varies by region, with urban areas likely better mapped than remote locations.

Use Cases

• Plan evacuation routes based on airport and emergency landing site locations.
• Coordinate aerial logistics and supply drops using helipad and runway data.
• Assess aviation infrastructure coverage for disaster response planning.
• Map aviation facilities for transportation network analysis.

Strengths

• Includes multiple feature types such as airports, helipads, runways, and terminals.
• Available in multiple geospatial formats including GEOPACKAGE, SHP, and GEOJSON.
• Data is sourced from the collaborative OpenStreetMap project and maintained by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Completeness varies by region, with remote areas potentially incomplete.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
