Micronesian Aviation Infrastructure from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap data for airports, heliports, runways, terminals, and emergency landing sites in the Federated States of Micronesia. The dataset was last updated on 2026-05-15 and is exported by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team. It is provided in multiple geospatial formats including GeoPackage, Shapefile, and GeoJSON.

Use Cases

• Plan evacuation routes based on airport and helipad locations.
• Coordinate aerial-response logistics using aviation infrastructure data.
• Assess regional aviation capacity based on mapped runways and terminals.

Strengths

• Data is available in five geospatial formats (GEOPACKAGE, HTML, SHP, GEOJSON, JSON).
• Explicitly includes emergency landing sites tagged via the `emergency` key.
• Sourced from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map.

Limitations

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