French Polynesia Airports and Aviation Infrastructure from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap exports provide airports, heliports, runways, terminals, and emergency landing sites for French Polynesia. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) compiled this data, which was last updated on 2026-05-14. Completeness of this volunteer-built map varies, with urban areas likely better mapped than remote regions.

Use Cases

• Planning evacuation routes based on the locations of airports and emergency landing sites.
• Optimizing logistics networks using the spatial distribution of airports and helipads.
• Assessing aviation infrastructure coverage for disaster response planning based on aeroway features.

Strengths

• Data is sourced from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map.
• Includes multiple aviation infrastructure types such as airports, heliports, runways, terminals, and emergency landing sites.
• Available in multiple geospatial file formats including GEOPACKAGE, SHP, and GEOJSON.

Limitations

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