Welcome to the map

This site maps every relevant place on Earth using open data from OurAirports. Every point you see on the map was contributed by a real person mapping the world.

Where the data comes from

We download OurAirports' airport register, keep the airports that carry passengers, tag each one with its country and store everything as a single static GeoJSON file.

No database, no tracking — just a fast map.

How fresh is it?

A scheduled GitHub Action re-fetches the dataset once a month, commits the updated GeoJSON, and triggers a new deployment automatically. The map is always close to the live state of OurAirports.

Want a place added?

Edit the airport on OurAirports — the correction appears here at the next data refresh.
