Generate Procedure Leg Geometry (Aviation Tools)

Summary

Generates geometry from procedure legs to correct loaded AIXM data lacking proper geometry.

This tool analyzes each selected procedure leg geometry based on the TYPE_CODE and the corresponding ARINC 424 geometry definition. This tool will navigate the relationships to appropriate point features, angle or distance indication rows based on the Procedure leg point geometry relationship. The tool will then create geometry for the feature and updated as appropriate based on the presence of existing geometry.

Usage

  • All input feature classes require the attributes in the ArcGIS Aviation AIS schema.

  • The type of geometry created will be based on the Procedure Leg parameter value's TYPE_CODE field, which corresponds to the 22 possible ARINC 424 procedure leg types. Each type has a specific definition of how the geometry is created from its corresponding point and bearing inputs.

  • The tool will only update the existing geometry of features when the Overwrite Existing Geometry parameter is checked.
