It is based completely on apt.dat data, additional data is based on
geodesic calc from geographiclib. A lot of specs are still missing, but I
can generate such xml files for every airport definition in apt.dat.

Maybe not all the data make sense to be in this per airport .xml file.
Some data is only used for scenery creation ... (and parts like freqs etc.
are missing right now, but can be added).

Cheers, Yves

Pete,


If you're after a web service, I have the current fgdata version of
apt.dat in either XML or JSON (depending on the Accepts: HTTP header as
either of {"application/xml", "application/json"} it defaults to XML )
It's a REST service so you just stick the ICAO airport identifier on
the end, eg:

http://goat.hopto.org/fgatc/xml/navdb/airport/KSFO

I'm in the process or upgrading the parser to support the 10.00 version
(which is not much different than the 8.50 format that I also support).
The only thing is that I can't guarantee it will be always available,
it's my home development box... But if it is useful perhaps we can find
a more permanent home for it...

It is based completely on apt.dat data, additional data is based on
geodesic calc from geographiclib. A lot of specs are still missing, but I
can generate such xml files for every airport definition in apt.dat.
Maybe not all the data make sense to be in this per airport .xml file.
Some data is only used for scenery creation ... (and parts like freqs etc.
are missing right now, but can be added).

Hi Pete

You can find the scripts here
http://code.google.com/p/flightgear-world-scenery/source/browse

section tools/xml-creator

(But this is not finished yet!)

All the single-apt.dat files from current xplane .dat cycle you will find
in data/xplane-single

To get the xml output you need to pull the repo and install geographiclib
(with python support, only for additional data like threshold coords
etc.), and run i.e.

python xml-creator.py data/xplane-single/E/EDDF.dat

In tools/apt-extractor I also pushed the scripts to split apt.dat into
single files.

Be aware this is all experimental and I don’t know if there will be any
use for this. The idea was to have one single xml file per airport
containing all (needed) airport data in one single file. It is far from
what terrasync delivers at the moment. So as a proposal this data could be
useful once maybe for terrasync, flightgear, but also for webservices like
maps etc. (updated automatically every 1-3 months along xplane data
cycle).

And please note that all this stuff has not to be on goolge code, it’s
just a (almost personal) interim workspace.

It is based completely on apt.dat data, additional data is based on
geodesic calc from geographiclib. A lot of specs are still missing, but
I
can generate such xml files for every airport definition in apt.dat.
Maybe not all the data make sense to be in this per airport .xml file.
Some data is only used for scenery creation ... (and parts like freqs
etc.
are missing right now, but can be added).
