Airports GIS Workshop

February 1-2, 2012
Tampa, FL

The FAA’s new Airports GIS program, combined with new Advisory Circular (AC) requirements for geospatial and aeronautical data gathering and formulation, has brought about a major paradigm shift in the way airport data is handled. The new set of standards and policies significantly changes the way in which airports must collect data related to capital projects, master plans and ALPs, as well as how the data must be submitted to the FAA’s new AIRPORTS GIS program. This new approach will provide a centralized data store that will ensure consistency and accuracy, and will provide for a common data access point for the FAA as well as the airport community. This workshop will educate airport professionals of all disciplines on the FAA’s new requirements and their implications on airport projects and the FAA grant approval process. Workshop participants will understand what they need to do and how to get up and running with the FAA’s AIRPORTS GIS protocols. More...
