OpenStreetMap data for Greece 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 likely being more detailed than remote locations.

Use Cases

• Plan evacuation routes based on airport and helipad locations.
• Optimize logistics networks using aviation infrastructure data.
• Coordinate aerial emergency response based on mapped runways and landing sites.

Strengths

• Covers multiple aviation facility types including airports, heliports, and emergency landing sites.
• Available in multiple geospatial file formats including GEOPACKAGE, SHP, and GEOJSON.
• Derived from the collaborative OpenStreetMap project, allowing for community updates.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Completeness varies by region; remote areas may be incompletely mapped.
