Kosovo Airports and Aviation Infrastructure from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap features in Kosovo related to aviation, including airports, aerodrome buildings, helipads, and emergency landing sites. The dataset is provided by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) and was last updated on March 3, 2026. It includes attributes such as name, aeroway type, building classification, address details, and operator information.

Use Cases

• Map airport and helipad locations based on the 'aeroway' and 'emergency:helipad' tags.
• Analyze facility capacity and operator types using the 'capacity:persons' and 'operator:type' attributes.
• Geocode aviation facilities using the provided 'addr:full' and 'addr:city' address fields.

Strengths

• Data is available in multiple geospatial formats (SHP, GEOJSON, GEOPACKAGE, KML) for flexibility.
• Includes multilingual name tags ('name:en', 'name:sq', 'name:sr') for localization.
• Sourced from a collaborative, open-source mapping project (OpenStreetMap).

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Freshness should be verified as the last update date is in the future (2026-03-03).
