The obstacle lighting, marking and material properties as listed in PANS-AIM Appendix 6 map to AIXM 5.1(.1) elements that appear in the following diagram.

The following table provides more information on the lighting, marking and material properties, including the corresponding names in Table A6-2 and the Data Catalogue. This is important as the two sources used to define the basic properties are not always consistent.
