AVIATIONTOOLBOX: alpha version of route mapping tool by
Kyler Laird
I took a little bit of a break after creating the tools to generate
normalized "chunks" from sectional images.
http://aviationtoolbox.org/munge/mosaic
Over the holidays I got back into it and tackled doing something
useful with those chunks. I already revealed my map_image tool which
generates an...

AVIATIONTOOLBOX: automatic route selection by
Kyler Laird
I've been asked to help write some code to assist in flight planning
by choosing routes. I have just enough Computer Science and IFR
background to make me dangerous. I said that I'd donate my effort
if it results in Free code the community can use. So we're making
this a community...

AVIATIONTOOLBOX: catching up for the new year by
Kyler Laird
I fell behind in maintaining my copies of FAA data last year.
http://aviationtoolbox.org/raw_data/FAA/
As a new year's resolution, I decided to get going again.
I misplaced the December ATA-100 data but I now have the January version
in place.

AVIATIONTOOLBOX: Christmas sectionals are here and rsync-able. by
Kyler Laird
Somehow the FAA forgot to send me the last batch of sectional DVDs
and by the time I finally called about it they didn't have any
remaining. I was told to wait for the next batch. It's here.
This batch doesn't become effective until December 25, 2003, but
because the previous batch has expired,...

AVIATIONTOOLBOX: ConUS sectionals in under 2GB by
Kyler Laird
I converted all of the sectional map chunks
http://aviationtoolbox.org/munge/mosaic
from 24-bit to 8-bit (palette) color. Putting them all into a
single zip file, they compressed to 1.9GB (2013432788 bytes).

AVIATIONTOOLBOX: How do you like your maps stitched? by
Kyler Laird
Recently I've been working a lot on manipulating the FAA sectionals I
purchased.
http://aviationtoolbox.org/raw_data/FAA_sectionals/
I've been amazed by the hundreds of people who have downloaded this data.
There's apparently some interest in it so I'd like to solicit input on
some of the projects...

AVIATIONTOOLBOX: how I convert sectional maps to map chunks by
Kyler Laird
For the past few weeks, I've been obsessed with manipulating the newly-
available (from the FAA) raster sectional images. This is all new to
me so I've just been banging out code trying to get something
reasonable. The code is *horrible* and I don't recommend it as
anything beyond an example of...

AVIATIONTOOLBOX: I've added your approach plates. by

Thanks to Dennis Megary at MyAirplane.com, I've added the vector
(PDF) approach plates to my collection.

There's a lot that I plan to do with these, but for now I have a
terribly simple kludge for finding them...

AVIATIONTOOLBOX: new chart product from the FAA by
Kyler Laird
It's been months since I got a good set of sectional raster DVDs
from the FAA. For a couple cycles a Miami image was missing
georeferencing data. That was fixed but then the current set I
received had a bad (East) disk. So I called to see if I could
get another.
They didn't have any extra disks...

AVIATIONTOOLBOX: new sectionals by
Kyler Laird
I just got the new sectionals (effective now) uploaded.

I suggest using rsync to get them.

I'm masking/warping/chunking them now. I'll move the new chunks into
place (so that...

AVIATIONTOOLBOX: parsing FAA ATA-100 data by

I just uploaded the February 19, 2004 ATA-100 data.

I've been asked several times (and twice this week) how I decode this data
for the delimited views
http://aviationtoolbox.org/old/ATA-100/
so I decided to take a pass at rewriting the...

AVIATIONTOOLBOX: plot GPS log by
Kyler Laird
I needed a break this morning so I whipped up a trivial little script
to create a sectional image from GPS data.
https://aviationtoolbox.org/Members/kyler/tools/trip_plot
It just barely works but it takes NMEA $GPRMC sentences and generates
a JPEG. I noticed that there are people who like to...

AVIATIONTOOLBOX: recent FAA sectional scans by
Kyler Laird
When I got my first DVD of sectional images from the FAA I was
thrilled by the quality of the scans. I did, however, notice
that the sectionals had wide-ranges of colors to denote similar
elevations. This was especially noticeable out west where the
sectionals meet.
Lately I've noticed that some...

AvMap EKP IV by
Almarz
Anyone have PIREPs about this product? Does it contain approaches
that we can study while not yet flying and on the ground? What's your
overall take on it. Jay, is this the one you use?
