FAA 13A Surfaces (Aviation)

Disponible con licencia de Aviation Charting.

Resumen

Creates obstruction identification surfaces (OIS) based on the FAA Advisory Circular 150/5300-13A specification. These primary and approach surfaces are designed to determine which objects are vertical obstructions and are used to support planning and design activities. The type, function, and dimension of a surface differ by its runway classification. This tool creates surfaces as a polygon or multipatch features.

Uso

  • The Input Runway Features parameter value must be z-enabled.

  • The Target OIS Features parameter value must be z-enabled.

  • This tool creates the OIS in an existing polygon or multipatch feature class. It can also be generated in an existing polygon shapefile. If a feature class is specified for the Target OIS Features parameter, it must have a vertical spatial reference.

  • OIS tools are flexible and accept a variety of input and output feature class types. For more information, see the OIS Input and Output schemas.

  • The selection you make in the High Runway End Classification parameter and the Low Runway End Classification parameter will automatically populate most of the surface perimeters.

  • The Input Threshold Point Features parameter can be used to supply x-, y-, and z-geometry for displaced threshold features. If displaced thresholds are included, surfaces will be constructed based on their x-, y-, and z-geometry instead of their corresponding runway feature endpoint.

  • To create a .json file for the Custom JSON File parameter value, use the CustomizeOIS.exe file that is part of the ArcGIS Aviation data package available from My Esri.

  • To generate clearway surfaces, check the Generate Clearway Surfaces parameter, and specify an option for the Generate Departure Surfaces parameter.
