Pooleys georeferenced circuits and noise abatement

Rob

FYI... Runway HD have georeferenced Pooleys plates including circuits and noise abatement areas that overlay on the chart in their application.

I recall talking to the lead developer of Runway HD at one if the Sywell shows last year and he claimed they did all the work to align these plates with the GPS position themselves.

As they are a competitor to SD I guess it's unlikely they will volunteer to supply this data.

Sounds like the perfect job to outsource to an offshore team to me!

I agree with previous comments, this is a real value add especially as complying with noise driven odd shaped circuits is becoming more common, even to the point where Wycombe now insist all club planes carry a data logger so the circuit patterns flown can be checked after each flight.
