TaxiwayGuidanceLine encoding

This section provides ‘TaxiwayGuidanceLine’ feature data encoding guidance.

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, the TaxiwayGuidanceLine represents a line connecting two or multiple points used to guide aircraft on and between airport movement areas. For GuidanceLine two or more points shall be measured. The key attributes are the longitude, latitude and the elevation in reference with WGS-84. 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 GuidanceLine is 'Line'. The definition of Line can be found in the Table A1-9 Data types of the Aeronautical Data Catalogue.

AMD encoding

AIXM 5.1

ED-99 feature TaxiwayGuidanceLine is mapped to the AIXM 5.1 as feature GuidanceLineMarking in association with feature GuidanceLine of type "TWY" even though the feature GuidanceLine has geometry component on its own.

In AIXM 5.1 the GuidanceLine is a general concept covering most of the "routes" at the aerodrome movement area. In many cases the GuidanceLine and associated GuidanceLineMarking and TaxiwayMarking - Centreline represents the same real world feature. However, the GuidanceLine as an AIXM 5.1 feature provides more possible association, e.g. the connection to TaxiHoldingPosition. Thus the preference is to have the  the GuidanceLineMarking in this correspondence.

Geometry

In the AIXM 5.1 the geometry of the GuidanceLine is curve encoded as object ElevatedCurve.

For more information regarding AIXM 5.1 Geometry encoding follow 'AIXM data coding'.

GML considerations:

AIXM 5.1 is based on GML. Hence, obtained geographical locations shall be transferred into a GML geometry object GeodesicString.

Time

Feature TaxiwayGuidanceLine shall be established in accordance with coding rules and requirements listed in AIXM 5.1 Temporality Model.

AIXM 5.1 features

TaxiwayGuidanceLine is mapped to the AIXM 5.1 as feature GuidanceLineMarking in association with feature GuidanceLine of type "TWY".

All associations are shown in the UML Diagram (see below).
