The urgency of the research. In recent years, world's airports are actively implementing cloud technologies for collecting, processing and visualizing geospatial data: laser and lidar scanning, integration of BIM / GIS models, the use of artificial intelligence, virtual and augmented reality technologies, digital duplicates and «smart» cities. For Ukraine, which is actively following the path of digitalization and implementation of modern geographic information technologies in many areas of ac-tivity, the development of new methods and approaches for administrative and economic management of airport complexes is a relevant and promising area. Target settings.This study examines the possibilities of modern geographic information and cloud technologies and pro-spects for their use for administrative and economic management of an airport. The study is related to the implementation of the State Target Program for Airport Development until 2023 and the Aviation Transport Strategy of Ukraine until 2030, which aims to develop the aviation industry in Ukraine, bringing airport infrastructure to the requirements of the European Union. The Law of Ukraine «On the National Infrastructure of Geospatial Data» and «Consolidated Concept of VIM Implementation in Ukraine» has a great influence on the formation of geospatial data of airports.Actual scientific researches and issues analysis. The paper analyzes and summarizes publications on methods of obtain-ing geospatial data, implementation of geographic information technologies, virtual, augmented and mixed reality technolo-gies, artificial intelligence and the concept of «smart» city for administrative and economic management of airports.Uninvestigated parts of general matters defining. Analysis of recent research and publications has shown that the pro-spects for the introduction of geographic information technology for administrative and economic asset management of Ukrain-ian airports need further research, as these issues are very important and relevant, given the rapid growth of digital society, environment and infrastructure.The research objective. The purpose of this study is to analyze the possibilities and prospects for the introduction of modern technologies for processing and visualization of geospatial data for administrative and economic management of the airport and the development of a conceptual model. The task of the research is to analyze the methods of obtaining geospatial data of the airport, the use of geographic information systems in airports, artificial intelligence technologies, virtual, aug-mented and mixed reality, the Internet of Things, digital duplicates, implementation of the concept of «smart» city, etc.The statement of basic materials. Geospatial data is created digitally using modern information and cloud technologies that offer a wide range of equipment, software, methods and technologies for working with geospatial information. Every year, new technologies that are used in the administrative and economic management of airports appear: cloud data acquisition methods, geographic information systems, artificial intelligence technologies, virtual reality, the Internet of Things, digital counterparts, «smart» cities, and more. Successful integration and use of existing capabilities for the collection, storage, pro-cessing and visualization of geospatial data of airports will ensure their effective management and economic growth.Conclusions. Based on the analysis of the possibilities of using virtual, augmented and mixed reality technologies, artifi-cial intelligence, digital duplicates and the concept of «smart» cities in airports,a conceptual model of prospects for using geospatial data of the airport to address administrative and economic management of the property complex was developed.
