The
Database
The data for the GEDTF
were compiled from various sources. A majority of the runway records were
extracted from the Google™ Earth. The data have been verified using the
World Aeronautical Database , AirNav.com and other sites. Although all
care was exercised, we cannot accept any responsibility for any errors
or omissions found in the GEDTF. See the Legal Stuff for more details.
The structure of a
record includes:
>>>>•
Region of the world (as per SRTM classification).
>>>>•
Country.
>>>>•
Airport name.
>>>>• Runway number.
>>>>• Latitude and longitude
(WGS 84) of both ends of runway (decimal degree).
>>>>• Elevations of both ends
of runway (m) above mean sea level.
>>>>•
Length and Width of the runway (m).
>>>>• Type of surface material
(Asphalt, concrete, turf, etc).
>>>>• Other suitable features
(under development).
