Coding Examples

The figure below shows a simple example of the airport with the ICAO location indicator "EADD" whichis also used as the designator of the airport

The airport name is DONLON/Int".

It serves the city of "Donlon".

EADD has a defined Airport Reference Point.

The magnetic variation at the airport was measured "1990" and with "3 degrees West" and is since then "decreasing 0.03 degrees".

The field elevation is "30 Meters" and the corresponding reference temperature is "21 degrees celcius".

The "Civil Aviation Adminstration" operates the airport.

titleAIXM 5.2 Improvements

A change proposal (AIXM-391) for the next AIXM 5.2 version has been approved by the AIXM Change Control Board, through which the data type TextNameBaseType is modified, allowing also the use of lowercase characters.

The coding guidelines provided here are aligned with forward/backward conversion rules contained in the AIXM-391 Change Proposal.

Info
titleAIXM 5.2 Improvements

A change proposal (AIXM-415) for the next AIXM 5.2 version has been approved by the AIXM Change Control Board, which adds a new attribute allowing the designation of an airport having an associated segmented circle marker.

The coding guidelines provided here are aligned with forward/backward conversion rules contained in the AIXM-415 Change Proposal.

Info
titleAIXM 5.2 Improvements

A change proposal (AIXM-405) for the next AIXM 5.2 version has been approved by the AIXM Change Control Board, which changed multiplicity (0..*) on the OrganisationAuthority side in the association with AirportHeliport, to allow more than one occurence.

The coding guidelines provided here are aligned with forward/backward conversion rules contained in the AIXM-405 Change Proposal.
