scope:

This document provides industry requirements for airport mapping databases for aeronautical use. It identifies aeronautical applications, which may use airport-mapping databases to define airport database standards. This document attempts to state the infor¬mation requirements for users. The expectation is that aerodrome mapping database (AMDB) originators and integrators would use this document when providing those data to system designers and/or the end-users.

This revision adds new Sections and text to reflect new features and rules; definitions, attributes, and data content were revised; new text was added to cover the requirements related to the Aerodrome Surface Routing Network (ASRN). Appendix-A was re-written, numerical requirements tables were updated following harmonization with ICAO Annexes 4, 14 and 15 and editorial errors were corrected.
