Czech Aviation Infrastructure from OpenStreetMap

A 2026 snapshot of Czechia's aviation infrastructure, including airports, heliports, runways, terminals, and emergency landing sites. The dataset is compiled by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) from volunteer-contributed OpenStreetMap data tagged with `aeroway`, `building`, or `emergency` keys. It is useful for logistics, evacuation routing, and aerial-response planning.

Use Cases

• Plan evacuation routes based on the locations of airports and emergency landing sites.
• Optimize logistics networks using the spatial distribution of airports and helipads.
• Model aerial response capabilities for disasters using the inventory of runways and terminals.
• Assess infrastructure coverage gaps by comparing urban and remote area mapping completeness.

Strengths

• Data is available in multiple geospatial formats (GEOPACKAGE, SHP, KML, GEOJSON, JSON).
• Source is OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map.
• Dataset was last updated on 2026-06-27.

Limitations

• Coverage reflects volunteer mapper activity; remote areas may be sparsely represented.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
