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

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

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...

Thanks to Dennis Megary at MyAirplane.com, I've added the vector (PDF) approach plates to my collection. http://aviationtoolbox.org/raw_data/FAA/approaches/ 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: parsing FAA ATA-100 data by Kyler Laird
I just uploaded the February 19, 2004 ATA-100 data. http://aviationtoolbox.org/raw_data/FAA/ATA-100/20040219.zip 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...
