DESCRIPT Name or identification for the runway's airport
USER NOTES:
Horizontal positional accuracy is based on coordinate data provided in the NFDC 5010 database. These coordinate data dentify the approximate location of the Airport Reference Point (ARP) as reported by the landing facility on the NFDC 5010 form. According to NFDC guidelines, thelocation of the ARP should be reported to a horizontal accuracy of one arc second of latitude and longitude. However, the accuracy of these reported coordinates are not verified by FAA.
FGDL QUALITY ASSURANCE STATUS:
-Reprojected data to FGDL Albers -Set Tolerances to FGDL Standard -Dropped item 'featureid' (repeat of featureid), and 'locid' -Moved descript to the end of table -Joined related attribute tables
REFERENCES:
Federal Aviation Administration contributed facility locations, name and other identification, physical description, ownership, FAA certification, military and customs landing rights, number of runways and helipads.
