The Aviation Preferences tool allows you to set preferences that dictate how ArcGIS Aviation Charting geoprocessing tools create airspace lines, generate airspace areas, process routes, and perform change detection in ArcGIS Pro. The preferences you configure with this tool are stored in a preferences table located inside of the Aviation Charting Aeronautical Information System (AIS) geodatabase schema provided in the Aviation Charting product data package at My Esri.

Preferences table
A preferences table is a stand-alone table included in the Aviation Charting AIS geodatabase schema:
| Field name | Data type |
|---|---|
| Name | Text (max length 255 characters) |
| Description (Required) | Text (max length 255 characters) |
| JSON (Required) | Text (max length 20,000 characters) |
| Type | Text (max length 255 characters) |
Nota:
If your geodatabase schema does not contain a preferences table, you can manually create one. The new table must contain the fields listed above along with the correct data type and length for your table to populate correctly. Your new table must also be named Preferences.
Open the Aviation Preferences view
You can populate a preferences table using the Aviation Preferences tool in ArcGIS Pro.
- Start ArcGIS Pro.
- Open or create a new project containing an Aviation Charting AIS geodatabase.
- If your project contains a map with feature classes from your Aviation Charting AIS geodatabase, skip to step 8.
- If the Catalog pane is not open, click the View tab, then click Catalog Pane.
- Expand the Databases drop-down arrow in the Catalog pane.
- Expand your Aviation Charting AIS geodatabase.
- Right-click on the feature class you want to add, then click Add To Current Map.
The feature class you chose appears as a layer in the Contents pane and the Charting tab appears on the ribbon.
- Click on the Charting tab.
Nota:
Before the Charting tab appears on the ribbon, you need to add a feature class from your Aviation Charting AIS geodatabase to the map.
- In the Configuration section, click Preferences.
The Aviation Preferences view appears.
Add preferences
The Aviation Preferences tool allows you to populate your geodatabase's preferences table with preferences for the Generate Airspace Lines, Process ATS Routes, and Report Aviation Chart Changes tools.
- With the Aviation Preferences view open, choose the preference you want to add in the Add Preferences group on the ribbon.
- Process ATS Routes—Determines how the Process ATS Routes tool identifies and processes route features.
- Generate Airspace Lines—Determines how the Generate Airspace Lines tool generates airspace lines from input airspace boundary features.
- Generate Airspace Areas—Determines how the Generate Airspace Areas tool generates airspace areas from input airspace features.
- Report Chart Changes—Determines how the Report Aviation Chart Changes tool identifies data changes between two geodatabase corporativa versions.
A new record appears.
Nota:
The red box next to the new record indicates that the record is invalid and cannot be used to populate a preferences table. A record is considered invalid if the preference is a duplicate value, or if the preference contains incomplete information.
- Click the new record.
- Locate the Preference Details section and expand the General Info group.
- In the Name text box, type a unique name that defines the preference you are creating.
Nota:
You cannot have multiple preferences of the same type with the same name. For example, it is valid to have two separate preferences called Airspace Route for the Process ATS Routes and Generate Airspace Lines tools. It is not valid, however, to have two preferences called Airspace Routes for the Generate Airspace Lines tool.
- In the Description text box, type a unique description for the preference.
- In the Tag text box, type descriptive tags for the preference.
- Continue configuring the preference you chose with one of the following sections:
Configure preferences for the Process ATS Routes tool
The following steps allow you to configure preferences for the Process ATS Routes tool in a preferences table. These preferences determine how the Process ATS Routes tool runs on your features.
- Expand the Define Overlaps group in Preference Details.
- Click the ATSRoutes Fields drop-down arrow and check the check boxes next to the fields you want to use to define overlapping features..
Nota:
Only features with identical values in the chosen fields are considered overlapping.
- Click the ATSRoutes_C Fields drop-down arrow and check the check boxes next to the fields you want to use to define overlapping features.
- Hide Overlapping Routes—Overlapping route features are hidden.
- Concatenate Idents—Overlapping route features' identifier values are concatenated with a hyphen.
- Offset Overlapping Routes—Overlapping features appear offset from one another.
Nota:
If you checked this check box, you must provide an Offset Value, which determines how far apart the features appear on a chart.
- Locate the new record in the Aviation Preferences view and ensure that the record is complete and that it is not a duplicate.
As you fill in details in the Preference Details section, the record populates with information automatically. Ensure that the colored box next to the record is green. If it is still red, then the record is invalid and cannot be used to populate the preference table.
- In the Preferences group, click Save.
Your changes have been committed, and the preference table in your Aviation Charting AIS geodatabase has been populated.
Nota:
You can undo a change to your preferences by right-clicking on the record and clicking Undo Changes. You cannot undo changes after you save your preferences to the preferences table.
Configure preferences for the Generate Airspace Lines tool
The following steps allow you to configure preferences for the Generate Airspace Lines tool in a preferences table. These preferences determine how the Generate Airspace Lines tool runs on your features.
- In the General Info section, build a query to select features associated with this preference under Filter.

- Click the Types drop-down arrow and check the check boxes next to the airspace classifications you want to process with the Generate Airspace Lines tool.
- Expand the Airspace labels to process group.
- Click the Labels drop-down arrow and check the check boxes next to the labels you want to process with the Generate Airspace Lines tool.
- Optionally, set a Cluster Tolerance value and measurement unit, which defines how close vertices should be to one another to be considered coincident.
- Locate the new record in the Aviation Preferences view and ensure that the record is complete and that it is not a duplicate.
As you fill in details in the Preference Details section, the record populates with information automatically. Ensure that the colored box next to the record is green. If it is still red, then the record is invalid and cannot be used to populate the preference table.
- In the Preferences group, click Save.
Your changes have been committed, and the preference table in your Aviation Charting AIS geodatabase has been populated.
Nota:
You can undo a change to your preferences by right-clicking on the record and clicking Undo Changes. You cannot undo changes after you save your preferences to the preferences table.
