Airports OSM

Extract and visualize airport data (ex: runway geocoordinates) from OpenStreetMap with Python tools

Airport data are extracted with OSMnx, stored as graphs or GeoPandas](http://geopandas.org/) dataframes, and visualized with Matplotlib.

The map background to check data is built with contextily

Example 1: visualize all Amsterdam Schipol airport elements

amsterdam

Example 2: extract airport data and visualize a runway on top of background map

runway_airport

Running the tests

Run the following notebooks to load and visualize air traffic data:

  • demo_eddf: notebook to load and visualize airport data from EDDF airport

  • demo_airport_runway: notebook to load all data related to an airport, extract runway information as geodataframe and visualize on top of a background map to check data

  • demo_top_European_airports (deprecated): notebook to load data from main European airports and plot them as maps

Run the

Built With
