Краткая информация

Generates obstruction identification surfaces (OIS) for heliports based on ICAO Annex 14 Volume II specifications.

ICAO Annex 14 Volume II defines recommended international standards and procedures for aerodromes containing heliports. This tool can be used to identify obstacles that may impact an aircraft's ability to take off from or land on a helipad. By creating multipatch or polygon features, you can visually identify obstructions in ArcGIS Pro. The OIS created by this tool should extend from a safety area around the Final Approach and Takeoff (FATO) surface. Pursuant to ICAO standards, a safety area is a defined buffer around a FATO surface that extends at least three meters out or 1/4 the diameter of the aircraft's rotor wings, whichever is greater. There must be no obstacle present inside the safety area.

Использование

  • This tool generates OIS based on three slope design categories. Slope design categories are separated by a rotor aircraft's performance class. Slope design categories will be modified by this tool whether flight operations occur during the day or night.

  • Pursuant to ICAO Annex 14 Volume II, the width of the helipad safety area should not exceed the following dimensions:

    • Seven times the rotor diameter during daytime operation
    • Ten times the rotor diameter during nighttime operation
  • The helipad safety area features you provide for the Input Safety Features parameter must be circular or rectangular.

  • To create a .json file for the Custom JSON File parameter, use the CustomizeOIS.exe utility included in the Aviation Airports Product Data download available from My Esri.

  • If you select the Curved Surface option for the Surface Shape parameter, you must provide polyline features in the Input Flight Path Features parameter for the surface to follow.

  • The Input Flight Path Features parameter value must be polyline geometry and include an ObjectID field. The polyline endpoint of the Input Flight Path Features parameter value should be created within a 100 meter search radius of the edge of the Input Safety Area Features parameter value.

  • The Input Flight Path Features parameter value can be 2D data, because the x and y-values are used to create the direction of the curve.

  • If the PATHID field is included in the Target OIS Features parameter value, it will be populated with the ObjectID value of its source Input Flight Path Feature. This allows Flight Path features to be related to their output curved approach surfaces. The PATHID field (long integer) must first be added to the Target OIS Features parameter value.

  • The unit of measurement for the Clearway Length parameter is the same as the unit of measurement for the Input Safety Area Features parameter.

  • The Input Safety Area Features parameter value should contain z-enabled polygon features with defined horizontal and vertical coordinate systems.

    Примечание:

    Z-values are required to determine the slope and final height of the approach surface.

  • The RUNWAYHELIPADDESIGNSURFACE feature class in the 18C AIRFIELD dataset can be used for the Input Safety Area Features parameter.

  • If the Input Safety Area Features parameter has values that are populated in the RUNWAYDESIGNATORIDENTIFIER and IDARPT fields, they will also be populated in corresponding fields in the Target OIS Features parameter value

  • The OBJECTIDENTIFICATIONSURFACE_MP feature class in the 18C Airspace dataset can be used for the Target OIS Features parameter and contains the expected fields to be populated.

  • The following output attributes will be populated by the tool: USERNOTETEXT, NAME, OISSURFACETYPECODE, LANDINGSTRIPDESIGIDENTIFIER, PRIMARYSLOPEVALUE, and IDARPT.
