What You Get
The Esri Aeronautical Solution—Airports GIS tools and templates use a free and ready-to-use -18B geodatabase template provided by the FAA. This eliminates costly and time-consuming database design and helps to ensure consistency and compliance with -18B requirements. Also included is detailed, easy-to-use documentation outlining configuration and getting started with the solution information.
Key capabilities available with the Esri Aeronautical Solution—Airports GIS Package include:
Preconfigured map product templates that can be used out-of-the box or easily customized to an airport's specific requirement.
A single integrated workflow management application with the ability to assign, track, and report on activities across any number of functional areas within an airport. Structured, step-by-step instructions that automate and simplify recurring tasks associated with preparing, reviewing, and submitting Airports GIS data to the FAA. Additional workflows can be configured to support other airport activities from routine maintenance to other non-GIS tasks.
These tools come with over 300 preconfigured checks developed from the FAA's -18B specification. These customizable tools provide comprehensive checking and reporting on both geometry and attribute data, enabling airports to improve their data quality and submit compliant data to the FAA the first time!
Preconfigured -18B data editing templates making the creation and management of Airports GIS consistent and efficient. The interface can be tailored to an airport's specific data editing requirments and recurring attribute values can be automatically pre-populated.
Automated tools for creating and visualizing FAA Part 77 and ICAO Obstacle Identification Surfaces. Now airports can easily generate these surfaces in iterative "what if" planning scenarios.
As the Airports GIS program continues to evolve, Esri will continually expand and update its support for this mandate. New tools and templates will be offered via download from the Esri Resource Center.
Preconfigured map product templates.
