Namibian Aviation Infrastructure from OpenStreetMap

OpenStreetMap exports provide airports, heliports, and runways for Namibia. The Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) compiled this data, last updated on 2026-05-14. Completeness likely varies, with urban areas better mapped than remote regions.

Use Cases

• Plan evacuation routes based on airport and emergency landing site locations.
• Optimize logistics networks using airport and helipad infrastructure data.
• Model aerial response scenarios using runway and terminal locations.

Strengths

• Data includes multiple aviation infrastructure types: airports, heliports, helipads, runways, terminals, and emergency landing sites.
• Available in multiple geospatial file formats: GEOPACKAGE, KML, SHP, GEOJSON, and JSON.

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 source description.
