The maps presented in this atlas reflect airports based on 2017 data from the Civil Aviation Authority of Maldives.
On the cover: An aerial view shows 1 of 26 natural atolls that make up Maldives, which also includes nearly 1,200 small coral islands and some of the world’s most beautiful beaches. Recognized as the seventh-largest in the world, the coral reefs and associated ecosystems of Maldives are key foundations for food security and means of livelihood. Yet, they are considered as among the most vulnerable to climate change (photo by Roberta Gerpacio).
