Moldova Airports and Aviation Infrastructure from OpenStreetMap

Moldova's airports and aviation infrastructure exported from OpenStreetMap. The data includes airports, heliports, helipads, runways, terminals, and emergency landing sites tagged via `aeroway`, `building`, or `emergency` keys. It was last updated on 2026-05-14 and is provided by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT).

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 helipads.
• Assess aviation infrastructure coverage for aerial-response planning.
• Cross-reference OSM-derived airport data with other geospatial datasets for validation.

Strengths

• Includes multiple aviation infrastructure types: airports, heliports, helipads, runways, terminals, and emergency landing sites.
• Available in multiple geospatial file formats: GEOPACKAGE, KML, HTML, SHP, GEOJSON, JSON.
• Derived from OpenStreetMap, a free, collaborative world map built by volunteers.

Limitations

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