A-GIS/eALP Pilot Program Objectives

To implement Airports-GIS intostandard airport and FAA businesspractices in a planned and orderlymanner for all arties to develo criticalskills and make appropriate modifications

for the Nation-wide deployment To evaluate, beta test and provide

recommendations to improvetools/software/process being developedby the FAA for electronic ALP creation

To identify costs to assist in developinga Nation-wide deployment program

To eva uate Nationa TrainingMaterials in development

To Develop FAA internal/externalelectronic coordination procedures

To Provide recommendations to improveAdvisory Circulars and A-GIS portal

Pilot Program Scope x rpor s n eg on

Conduct Obstruction Survey for AllRunways and Perform Airport Airspace

- .

Collect Planimetric GIS Data fromElectronic Imagery

Translate and Import existing nonPlanimetric Data - where available

(Property Maps, Boundary Surveys,Environmental Data, Underground Utilities)

Translate to GIS and ImportPlanned development on existing ALP

- -tools (in beta version) to assemble eALP

Provide four interim reports
