The airport or air transportation terminal is one of the most important special uses in any region and a special node of the transportation network. Identifying and classifying these terminals is a fundamental step in planning and planning air transportation and transportation engineering, which allows the possibility of prioritizing and general policy regarding the airports of a network as well as local and regional development plans. Provide in a controlled manner. Diversity in the classification and local attitude in compiling relevant regulations is an obstacle for international activities in this field, and due to the major share of the origin-destinations of air travel outside the borders of the countries, it is necessary to conduct studies to match and the equalization of these items should be done. In this article, by analyzing, reviewing, and completing the studies conducted on airports, various conventional and required methods for classifying and identifying airports are presented as a tool for identifying, designing, planning, and policymaking airports. A worldwide transportation network in the hands of engineers, consultants, and planners
