Morocco Aviation Infrastructure: Multilingual OpenStreetMap Export

Aviation infrastructure features for Morocco exported from OpenStreetMap by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) as of March 2026. The collection encompasses airports, helipads, and landing sites identified through specific OpenStreetMap tags like 'aeroway' and 'emergency'.

Use Cases

• Identifying emergency medical evacuation points using 'emergency:helipad' and 'emergency' tags
• Analyzing regional aviation infrastructure distribution via 'aeroway' and 'addr:city' fields
• Developing multilingual navigation tools using 'name:ar' and 'name:ber' attributes

Strengths

• Multilingual support including Arabic (name:ar) and Berber (name:ber) labels
• Multiple GIS-ready formats including SHP, KML, and GeoPackage
• Specific categorization for emergency landing sites and helipads

Limitations

• Crowdsourced data source may result in varying levels of detail between urban and rural regions
• Unknown total record count in metadata
