    • Runways

    Metadata Updated: January 6, 2026

    The Runways dataset is updated every 28 days from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and is part of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT)/Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) National Transportation Atlas Database (NTAD). The Runways database contains runways in the United States and US territories containing information on the physical characteristics of the runways. This data layer contains runways that have corresponding and reported runways ends, and the linear feature of the runway could be created based off these points. The runways in the dataset are associated with the airports dataset on NTAD, showing runways for all official and operational aerodromes. This geospatial data is derived from the FAA's National Airspace System Resource Aeronautical Data. A data dictionary, or other source of attribute information, is accessible at https://doi.org/10.21949/1529077
