Saudi Arabia Airports and Aerodromes from OpenStreetMap

Saudi Arabia's airports, aerodromes, and helipads exported from OpenStreetMap. The dataset includes features tagged with 'aeroway', 'building=aerodrome', or emergency landing sites, and likely contains attributes such as name, operator type, and address. It is provided by the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team and was last updated in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Map aviation infrastructure locations based on OpenStreetMap aeroway tags.
• Analyze airport operator types based on the operator:type attribute.
• Identify emergency landing sites and helipads based on emergency-related tags.

Strengths

• Includes multiple spatial data formats (GARMIN IMG, GEOPACKAGE, GEOJSON, SHP, KML) for flexibility.
• Attributes suggest coverage of names, addresses, and operational details for features.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
