Cyprus Airports and Aviation Infrastructure from OpenStreetMap

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

Use Cases

• Plan evacuation routes based on the locations of airports and emergency landing sites.
• Map aviation logistics networks using the locations of airports, heliports, and runways.
• Coordinate aerial emergency response based on the infrastructure tagged as `aeroway`, `building`, or `emergency`.

Strengths

• Data is available in multiple geospatial formats including GEOPACKAGE, KML, SHP, and GEOJSON.
• Covers a specific geographic region (Cyprus) with infrastructure types explicitly listed.
• Sourced from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map built by volunteers.

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Completeness varies by region; remote areas may be incomplete and require cross-checking.
