Armenian official national geoportal maparmenia.am was announced about a year ago but is not available right now, and even when it was available, it needed to be more open, more open data, anyway.
So how to find Armenian geodata, map layers, and other spatial datasets? Here is a list of available open data catalogs:
- VGSE Armenia https://vgse.geology.am Geonode-based geoportal provided by the Institute of Geological Sciences of Armenia. It includes 12 map layers related to geology.
- The Armenian Soil Information System (ArmSIS) https://armsis.cas.am was created by the Armenian National Agrarian University and other research institutions of Armenia by request of the Ministry of Economy. It's Geonode based and provides open API to access 30 data layers.
- Open data portal of Armenia, a part of the Interactive Forest Atlas of Armenia https://data-download-gfw.hub.arcgis.com/ , it's an ArcGIS Hub based open data portal provided by NGO REC Caucasus with government and international geo data about the country with a focus on forestry.
- Geoserver of the Center for Ecological-Noosphere Studies National Academy of Sciences, RA https://og.cens.am:8081/geoserver . This geoportal includes map layers and open geo API: CSW, WFS, WMS, and e.t.c. It uses OS Geo Geoserver open-source software.
Many more spatial data about Armenia are available worldwide, and more to tell about each data catalog mentioned in this post. We will regularly write about them here and add the most exciting datasets to the data.opendata.am data catalog.
If you know any interesting spatial data catalog or spatial dataset related to the Republic of Armenia or Armenian history, please comment.

[EN] WorldPop is an Open Spatial Demographic Data and Research project at the University of Southampton. It provides a lot of open datasets via its WorldPop Hub data catalog that aggregates a lot of demographics-related data, and it gives a lot of Armenia-related datasets too.
For example:
- The spatial distribution of population in 2020, Armenia
- National boundaries, Armenia
And many other datasets are available as GeoTIFF files.
All datasets available under CC-BY open license.
We started uploading this data to our data catalog and other datasets with geodata, statistics, and demographics.
Feel free to share if you know any other interesting data sources related to Armenia that are interesting for data analysis and research.

More Armenian open geodata available. This time 85 datasets from Scientific Network for the Caucasus Mountain Regions (https://data.opendata.am/organization/sustcaucasus)
These datasets are map layers related to Armenia and neighbor countries and whole Caucasus.

We are waiting for the geodata on Armenia.
In the year 2021, the Asian Development Bank (ADB) launched the project "Armenia: Supporting the Establishment of National Standardised Spatial Data Infrastructure". Its aim is to support the Armenian Cadastre Committee in the creation of a National Standardised Spatial Data Infrastructure by the end of 2023 [1].
According to the latest tender documentation, this portal will be built using Open Geospatial Standards (CSW, WFS, WMS and geospatial data formats GML, GeoPackage, SHP, GeoJSON). This portal will be created using Open Source products, we don't know which ones, but most likely it will be a combination of Geonetwork, Geonode and Geoserver software from Open Geospatial Consortium. Or other similar open source geoportal software.
New portal should be at maparmenia.am, it's not available yet, but we are eagerly waiting for it and we hope that not only open source but also open data will be one of the priorities of the Cadastre Committee and spatial data will be available under permissive licences like Creative Commons CC-BY 4.0.

[EN] Interesting data about Armenia, outside Armenia. The ArcGIS service (ESRI company) provides search for maps, map layers, scenes, data files and other geospatial resources on its website [1]. More than 1855 resources are available and ready for reuse, most of them are free.
The only problem is that Armenia is also a district of Colombia, a Latin American state, and some maps are about Armenia in Colombia, not Armenia as a country. But it's pretty easy to distinguish between the two.😉
[RU] Интересные данные об Армении, за пределами Армении. Сервис ArcGIS (компания ESRI) обеспечивает поиск карт, слоев карт, сцен, файлов данных и других ресурсов, связанных с геоданными, на своем сайте [1]. Более 1855 ресурсов доступны и готовы к повторному использованию, большинство из них бесплатны.
Единственная проблема заключается в том, что Армения также является округом Колумбии, латиноамериканского государства, и некоторые карты посвящены Армении в Колумбии, а не Армении как стране. Но отличить их довольно просто🙏

[RU] Мы работаем над созданием общественного геопортала Армении где можно было бы наглядно смотреть на открытые геоданные, скачивать их, сравнивать, делать визуализации. И для этого мы собираем общедоступные геоданные.
Некоторые источники геоданных уже известны, это:
- проект Sustainable Caucasus [1]
- портал Центра экологических исследований РАН Армении [2]
- портал о земле ArmSIS [3] (более недоступен)
- портал ООН, Humanitarian Data Exchange [4]
С одной стороны геоданных много, и многие уже собраны на data.opendata.am, а с другой точки зрения всегда мало.
Если Вы знаете интересные источники геоданных по Армении/об Армении/Армянских культуре и истории в мире, просим поделиться ими, можно письмом на [email protected] или в чате в телеграм @opendataamchat.
Данные могут быть в форматах KML, SHP, GeoJSON, GML, API Esri ArcGIS, WFS, WMS, GPX и многие другие.
[EN] We are working on the creation of a public geoportal of Armenia where it would be possible to visually look at open geodata, download them, compare them, make visualizations. And for this purpose we are collecting publicly available geodata.
Some sources of geodata are already known, they are:
- Sustainable Caucasus project [1]
- the portal of the Environmental Research Center of the Armenian Academy of Sciences [2]
- ArmSIS land portal [3] (no longer available)
- UN portal, Humanitarian Data Exchange [4].
On the one hand there is a lot of geodata, and many are already collected on data.opendata.am, but on the other hand there is always not enough.
If you know interesting sources of geodata on Armenia/about Armenia/Armenian culture and history in the world, please share them, you can send an email to [email protected] or chat in telegram @opendataamchat.
Data can be in KML, SHP, GeoJSON, GML, Esri ArcGIS API, WFS, WMS, GPX and many other formats.
