Obstacle Limitation Surfaces Videos now available online! If you missed the live event this is your opportunity
We attended the ICAO Obstacle Limitation Surfaces Symposium and here is our review
I did a YouTube video no how you can read AIXM 5.1 vertical structures, which is where the obstacle data is stored. As more countries start releasing their data in formats like AIXM there is an increasing need to be able to read the format and extract the relevant information. Read more…
If you are using QGIS for aviation you may not have aeronautical symbology or styles, this is my first share of a Restricted Area style for using in your charts.
Just showcasing the new NDB svg symbol made to be used in QGIS for aeronautical charting, a few years ago I started making a few and now I will continue updating more of them until I got 1:1 parity with the ICAO aeronautical charting manual. You can use for free Read more…
Over the last few weeks I have been preparing material for an upcoming aeronautical charting course to be delivered this 2020. It is a lot of reading of different ICAO SARPs between annexes and documents due to the nature of the data we are using, as such I started thinking Read more…
Test using HTML & CSS rendering in QGIS for aviation charting
Quick post on ENR Obstacles, I am preparing a course where we need to design several parts of an instrument flight procedure and I usually start with the minimum sector altitudes (MSA) To calculate these we need to do a 25NM radius around a significant point, ARP or HRP, in Read more…
This year I was lucky enough to get approved to attend Global AIM at Santo Domingo, Republica Dominicana. The last conference I attended what the one at Rio de Janeiro in 2016 where I gave a talk Towards AIXM & Electronic Chart Implementation (youtube video, slides). A lot has changed since Read more…
