Gibraltar Airports and Aviation Infrastructure from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap data for Gibraltar's aviation infrastructure includes airports, heliports, runways, terminals, and emergency landing sites. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) exported this data, which was last updated on 2026-05-15. Completeness varies by region, with urban areas typically better mapped than remote locations.

Use Cases

• Plan logistics and supply routes based on airport and heliport locations.
• Model evacuation scenarios based on the network of runways and emergency landing sites.
• Assess aerial response capabilities based on the distribution of terminals and helipads.

Strengths

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

Limitations

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