Aviation Database
Navgps has active support for USA data. Data source is FAA. Free out-of-date database available for rest of the world.
The world according to Navgps is divided into eight regions.
You can load one or if you wish all the regions simultaneously.
- USA-EAST -navaids/airports east of 92W (inclusive) longitude.
Contains territories and islands.
- USA-WEST - point west of 92W (exclusive).
- Canada - navaids/airports tagged as Canada by DAFIF.
- Americas - navaids/airports between 120W (inclusive) and 30W (exclusive) longitude that
are not USA or Canada.
- Europe - navaids/airports between 30W (inclusive) and 30E (exclusive) AND north of 34N
(inclusive).
- Africa - navaids/airports between 30W (inclusive) and 53E (exclusive) and south of 34N
(exclusive).
- Australasia - navaids/airports between 53E (inclusive) and 120W (exclusive) and south
of 10N.
- Asia - all the rest.
Users can download free sample av-data from this site or
they can purchase current av-data. Current database is valid for 56-day periods. On expiration, approach-
mode display and airway data will be disabled - otherwise you can use it without any time restriction.
The primary differences between the sample and current data are:
- Contains current navaid/airport/frequency data.
- Navgps will allow approach-mode display for all the airports.
- Contains Victor airways data. You can enter a flight plan as cleared by clearance -
i.e. include the airways and Navgps will create the full route from it. {Pro-only}
Chances are that not every navaid and airport will be in these databases. In that case,
users have the option of creating their own databases.
Price: $18 USD/issue.
