Malta Airports and Aviation Infrastructure from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap data for Malta includes airports, heliports, helipads, runways, terminals, and emergency landing sites. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) exported this data, last updated on 2026-05-14. Completeness of features may vary by region, with urban areas likely being better mapped than remote ones.

Use Cases

• Plan evacuation routes based on the locations of airports and emergency landing sites.
• Optimize logistics networks using the spatial distribution of airports and heliports.
• Support aerial-response planning by mapping runways and helipads.
• Analyze aviation infrastructure coverage for regional development assessments.

Strengths

• Data is provided in multiple geospatial formats (GEOPACKAGE, KML, SHP, GEOJSON, JSON) for flexibility.
• Includes a specific and recent last updated timestamp: 2026-05-14 18:58:28.037483.
• Covers multiple aviation infrastructure types (airports, heliports, runways, terminals, emergency sites).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The description notes completeness varies by region, with remote areas potentially being incomplete.
