Airports and Aviation Infrastructure of Haiti from OpenStreetMap

Haiti's airports, heliports, runways, terminals, and emergency landing sites, tagged via OpenStreetMap keys. The dataset is derived from OpenStreetMap by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team and was last updated on 2026-06-19. Coverage reflects volunteer mapper activity, with urban areas typically well-represented and remote areas potentially sparse.

Use Cases

• Plan evacuation routes based on the locations of airports and emergency landing sites.
• Optimize aerial logistics and supply delivery based on helipad and runway locations.
• Assess aviation infrastructure coverage for disaster response planning.
• Cross-reference field knowledge with mapped infrastructure for critical decision-making.

Strengths

• Data is available in multiple geospatial formats, including GEOPACKAGE, SHP, KML, and GEOJSON.
• Includes diverse aviation infrastructure types: airports, heliports, helipads, runways, terminals, and emergency landing sites.
• Sourced from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative global mapping project.

Limitations

• Coverage is dependent on volunteer mapper activity, leading to potential sparsity in remote areas.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
