14, 28, 14
A defined area on land or water (including any buildings, installations and equipment) intended to be used either wholly or in part for the arrival, departure and surface movement of aircraft.
Aerodrome
Data collected for the purpose of compiling aerodrome mapping information.
Aerodrome mapping data (AMD)
are collected for purposes that include the improvement of the user’s situational
awareness, surface navigation operations, training, charting and planning.
Aerodrome mapping data (AMD)
A collection of aerodrome mapping data organized and arranged as a structured
data set.
Aerodrome mapping database (AMDB)
A representation of a portion of the Earth, its culture and relief, specifically designated to meet the requirements of air navigation.
Aeronautical chart
A representation of aeronautical facts, concepts or instructions in a formalized manner suitable for communication, interpretation or processing.
Aeronautical data
Information resulting from the assembly, analysis and formatting of aeronautical data
Aeronautical information
The dynamic, integrated management of aeronautical information through the provision and exchange of quality-assured digital aeronautical data in collaboration with all parties.
Aeronautical information management (AIM)
Aeronautical data and aeronautical information provided either as digital data sets or as a standardized presentation in paper or electronic media. Aeronautical Information Products include:
