A landing pad is a platform on a space station or planetary installation capable of supporting small spacecraft.

In the mid-22nd century, Rigel X had a landing pad just big enough for small auxilary craft. In 2351, Shuttlepod 1 from Enterprise NX-01 landed there. (ENT: "Broken Bow")

Later that year, Enterprise visited the Vulcan monastery of P'Jem, which also possessed a landing pad, just large enough for Shuttlepod 1 to land on. (ENT: "The Andorian Incident")

As of 2152, Pernaia Prime had a large landing pad, capable of holding up to seven small craft. (ENT: "The Seventh")

The Cardassian-built space stations, Deep Space 9 and Empok Nor had six landing pads, though when they abandoned the latter, they sealed them. On DS9, Starfleet housed the station's complement of Danube-class runabouts there. (DS9: "Emissary", "Empok Nor" et al)

In 2369 Major Kira Nerys returned from kidnapping Doctor Surmak Ren and requested docking procedures for landing pad 7. (DS9: "Babel")

This information contradicts the information from other episodes as there were six landing pads.

The same year the runabout USS Ganges docked at landing pad 7. Lieutenant Dax and Ensign Pauley returned from a routine mission in the Gamma Quadrant and needed help to get off the runabout because of a power loss of unknown origin. (DS9: "Q-Less")

In 2369, Lieutenant Jadzia Dax and Chief Miles O'Brien launched a runabout from Runabout Pad C when they went to rescue Commander Benjamin Sisko, Major Kira Nerys, Doctor Julian Bashir, and Kai Opaka from the Gamma Quadrant. (DS9: "Battle Lines")

Major Kira ordered two security officers to runabout pad three to accompany her to the Bajoran moon Jerrado and remove Mullibok, Baltrim, and Keena by force. (DS9: "Progress")

Later the same year, Neela killed Ensign Aquino when he discovered her attempting to set up an escape route prior to her assassination attempt on Vedek Bareil Antos. She made it look like she was going to use Pad A, when instead she meant to use Pad C. (DS9: "In the Hands of the Prophets")

In 2370, Commander Sisko ordered a security team to meet with him on runabout pad C to rescue Major Kira Nerys from "The Circle" in the Perikian Peninsula on Bajor. (DS9: "The Circle")

Later the same year during a plasma disruption that forced the evacuation of DS9, the USS Orinoco was at Landing Pad Three in case the skeleton crew had to leave in a hurry. (DS9: "Invasive Procedures")

During the Maquis incident of 2370, Commander Sisko informed Odo and Doctor Bashir to meet him on Landing Pad C, to go on the search for Gul Dukat. (DS9: "The Maquis, Part II")

Ferengi shuttlecraft were also capable of landing on one of DS9's landing pads. (DS9: "The Magnificent Ferengi", "Profit and Lace"), as were Romulan shuttlecraft. (DS9: "In the Pale Moonlight")

Lieutenant Jones was assigned to patrol duty near Runabout Pad E as Deep Space 9 prepared for an attack by the Dominion in 2373. (DS9: "By Inferno's Light")
