Outline Files

QR
     
     

Outline files are no longer available directly from these pages.

The original outline sets were provided in zip files which did not suit all users and had to be loaded in their entirety. This was not ideal and has now changed.

1. Users can now install the files by using the ActiveDisplayLite program.
2. Users can select files at individual level rather than install full sets of data.
3. The data sets have been fully rewritten and coverage is extending outside the UK to other countries.

Note: The new file sets required an updated naming convention which is not compatible with earlier releases. Older files require removal to avoid duplicate data sets - ActiveDisplay provides a removal tool for this purpose.

Outline Files

Outline files are used to create line features on the BaseStation display. Typically outline files are designed to produce coastlines, controlled airspace, danger areas, airfield plans, runway centrelines and military airspace.

Sets of outline files are being created for each country. Each country can be highlighted in ADLite and will show the available outline types for the country (these can vary). Users can select all the files available or choose only those they wish to install.

The list below shows currently available file sets and their data of validity.

For more detailed information see Outline Set Details

 

Coastlines


High Resolution Coastline sets

The default coastline provided in BaseStation is of low detail but provides a world-wide coastline in a reasonably small data file (the General.out file of approx. 3Mb).

These replacement sets are provided for users who do not need a full world-wide coastline but would prefer a regional coast of a much higher degree of detail. Any number of coastline files can be installed but for most systems it is recommended that a maximum of two should be active at any time.

Coastline data files are large so may not be usable on low end PC's.


Latest update - 28 Dec 2010

Users of ADLite might have a problem downloading coastline files so as a temporary fix the files can be downloaded directly from the links below. Note that the files are zips and once downloaded users will have to copy the included OUT files to their Outlines folder.

Civil Airfield Plans

These outlines are high resolution but show paved detail only. They display runway, taxiway and apron edges but not runway/taxiway/apron markings, airfield buildings or structures as these can frequently change.

European VOR Roses

VOR roses for European navaids that are the next en route point for airways exiting UK airspace. Also included is a waypoint file for users who do not have any European navaid data loaded.

The VOR roses are enabled by turning on Layer 15 in the Outlines section of the Display Settings.
