Airports and Aerodromes in Indonesia from OpenStreetMap

Indonesia Airports (OpenStreetMap Export) is a geospatial dataset of airport-related features across Indonesia, compiled by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT). It includes features tagged as aeroways, aerodrome buildings, helipads, and emergency landing sites from OpenStreetMap. The dataset was last updated on 2026-05-05.

Use Cases

• Mapping airport and helipad locations across Indonesia based on OpenStreetMap features.
• Analyzing the distribution of different aeroway types (e.g., runways, terminals) based on the 'aeroway' attribute.
• Studying airport operator types and capacities using the 'operator:type' and 'capacity:persons' fields.
• Validating or enriching other transportation datasets with OpenStreetMap-sourced address information ('addr:full', 'addr:city').

Strengths

• Includes multiple feature types: aeroways, buildings, helipads, and landing sites.
• Provides attributes for names, addresses, capacity, and operators, suggesting multi-faceted records.
• Available in multiple geospatial formats: KML, GEOJSON, SHP, and GEOPACKAGE.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data may reflect geographic and contributor bias inherent to OpenStreetMap's crowdsourced nature.
