Airports and Aviation Infrastructure of Djibouti from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap volunteer-mapped data includes airports, heliports, runways, terminals, and emergency landing sites in Djibouti. The dataset is provided by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) and was last updated on 2026-06-27. Coverage likely reflects mapper activity, with urban areas typically better represented than remote ones.

Use Cases

• Plan logistics and supply routes based on airport and helipad locations.
• Model evacuation scenarios using mapped emergency landing sites.
• Assess aviation infrastructure coverage for aerial-response planning.

Strengths

• Data is sourced from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map.
• Includes multiple feature types such as aeroways, buildings, and emergency tags.
• Available in multiple geospatial formats including GEOPACKAGE, SHP, and GEOJSON.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Coverage may be sparse in remote areas, as data reflects volunteer mapper activity.
