The Spaceports dataset was compiled on August 08, 2023 from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) and is part of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT)/Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) National Transportation Atlas Database (NTAD). This layer is meant to be a reference layer and features public and private spaceport facilities in the United States. The information found on FAA’s Office of Spaceports was used in creating this layer by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS), found here https://www.faa.gov/space/office_spaceports. These facilities support the launching and receiving of spacecraft into and from space. As a result, U.S. spaceports have a critical role in the growing global commercial space transportation industry. The FAA Office of Spaceports is responsible for development of policies that promote infrastructure improvements and strengthen the competitiveness of U.S. spaceports, supporting launch and reentry site licensing activities, providing technical assistance and guidance to existing and proposed new spaceports, and the domestic and global promotion of U.S. spaceports. The mission of the FAA’s Office of Spaceports is to enable the safest, most efficient network of launch and reentry spaceports in the world, along with a vision to advance a robust, innovative national system of spaceports supporting the U.S. as a global leader in the commercial space transportation industry.
