Lithuanian Aviation Infrastructure from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap exports provide airports, heliports, runways, terminals, and emergency landing sites across Lithuania. Completeness varies by region, with urban areas likely being well-mapped and remote areas potentially incomplete. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) maintains this export, last updated on 2026-05-14.

Use Cases

• Plan evacuation routes based on the locations of airports and emergency landing sites.
• Optimize logistics networks using the mapped locations of airports and helipads.
• Coordinate aerial-response missions by identifying available runways and terminals.
• Assess regional aviation infrastructure coverage using the volunteered geographic information.

Strengths

• Covers multiple aviation infrastructure types, including airports, heliports, runways, terminals, and emergency landing sites.
• Available in multiple geospatial file formats, including GEOPACKAGE, KML, SHP, and GEOJSON.
• Sourced from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map built by volunteers.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Completeness varies by region; remote areas may be incomplete according to the description.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
