Name | RunwayElement | AM_RunwayElement | RunwayElement[type='NORMAL'] | RunwayElement[type='NORMAL'] |
Information concept:
Runway: http://www.airm.aero/viewer/1.0.0/conceptual-model.html#Runway
Data concept:
RunwayElement: http://www.airm.aero/viewer/1.0.0/logical-model.html#RunwayElement
Information concepts indicate the reference vocabulary and relations of an RunwayElement with other concepts for operational experts. Data concepts indicate the reference features and properties for service architects, information/data architects and system implementers.
General
AMD data encoding can start when the necessary geographic information, aeronautical information and basic knowledge regarding the structure of created feature is available.
From the geographical point of view, several points of the outer border of the RunwayElement need to be captured. The key attributes are the longitude, latitude in reference with WGS-84 and the elevation of each captured point. In the next part the process of converting the geographical information into the GML form thus into geometry information is described.
Based on Aeronatical Data Catalogue the required type of geometry for feature RunwayElement is 'Polygon'. The definition of Polygon can be found in the Table A1-9 Data types of the Aeronautical Data Catalogue.
AMD encoding
AIXM 5.1
ED-99 feature RunwayElement is mapped to the AIXM 5.1 as feature RunwayElement with property Type set to "NORMAL".
Geometry
In the AIXM 5.1 the geometry of the RunwayElement is polygon encoded as object ElevatedSurface.
For more information regarding AIXM 5.1 Geometry encoding follow 'AIXM data coding'.
One of the reasons to create multiple RunwayElements under one Runway may be the diversity of the surface characteristics of the Runway. One part of the Runway can have different Surface or different friction coefficients than other part of the Runway.
GML considerations:
AIXM 5.1 is based on GML. Hence, obtained geographical locations shall be transferred into a GML geometry object PolygonPatch.
Figure 1 : RunwayElement
Time
Feature RunwayElement shall be established in accordance with coding rules and requirements listed in AIXM 5.1 Temporality Model.
AIXM 5.1 features
RunwayElement is encoded to the AIXM 5.1 as RunwayElement features.
All associations are shown in the UML Diagram (see below).
