Title: DC Geographic Information System
Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: vector digital data
Description:
Abstract:
Air Space locations. The dataset contains locations and attributes of Air Space in the Washington Metropolitan Area, created as part of the DC Geographic Information System (DC GIS) for the D.C. Office of the Chief Technology Officer (OCTO) and participating D.C. government agencies.
A database provided by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) identified Air Space guideliines for the DC Metro Area. The data specifically comes from NGA's Digital Aeronautical Flight Information File (DAFIF).
All DC GIS data is stored and exported in Maryland State Plane coordinates NAD 83 meters.
METADATA CONTENT IS IN PROCESS OF VALIDATION AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
Purpose:
This data is used for the planning and management of Washington, D.C. by local government agencies.
Supplemental_Information:
More information from Wikipedia:
In 2003 the U.S. created a "temporary" ADIZ around the Baltimore-Washington Metropolitan Area as a response to the September 11, 2001 attacks. The concept is to create a restricted zone for air traffic near strategically sensitive locations in the District of Columbia, such as the White House. This "temporary" ADIZ has created tension between the government and the pilots that fly in and around the ADIZ. Despite efforts by the FAA to inform pilots of the ADIZ there are still many unauthorized incursions by unsuspecting pilots. Many times the unfortunate pilot will get a military escort consisting of a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter or a F-16 fighter jet to the nearest airport, followed by suspension and/or revocation of the pilot's certificates. There have been two highly publicized mishaps inside this ADIZ. One involved a plane carrying the Governor of Kentucky. The other, almost a year later, involved a Cessna 150 flown by a student who was being supervised by an experienced pilot. Following this incident in 2005 Congress began considering legislation to make this ADIZ and other remaining post 9/11 "temporary" restrictions permanent. Both incidents led to the evacuation of the Capitol.
Within the ADIZ is an even more sensitive zone designated the Washington DC Metropolitan Area Flight Restricted Zone (DC FRZ). The DC FRZ extends approximately 13-15 nautical miles (15-17 statute miles) around the VOR/DME located at the Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. Flight within the FRZ is restricted to governmental, certain scheduled commercial and a limited set of waivered flights. Three general aviation airports (known as the "Maryland 3" or the "DC 3") are located inside the DC FRZ. The "Maryland 3" are College Park Airport (CGS), Washington Executive/Hyde Field (W32), and Potomac Airport (VKX). The status of College Park Airport's claim to being "the oldest continuously operating airport in the world" has come in to question as a result of these restrictions.
To operate an aircraft within the DC ADIZ a pilot must: (1) file an flight plan, (2) establish and maintain radio communications, and (3) Transmit ("squawk") a discrete transponder code assigned by Potomac Traffic Control.

Process_Description:
Data from the Digital Aeronautical Flight Information File (DAFIF) was downloaded locally. All files were brought into ArcMap and reprojected to DC Standard Maryland State Plane NAD83. The two features were represented in separate shapefiles. They were merged into one shapefile and all relevant attribute data was maintained.
