I am wondering where i can download a database of VFR reporting points, specifically in the Vancouver Terminal Area?
Any file format is ok, GPX, TXT, XLS etc.
cheers

Clearly the man wants the data in an electronic format. Come to think of it, I wouldn't mind it if my Garmin 396 had VFR waypoints....

Wow! Never thought about that !?!?photofly wrote:Clearly the man can OCR them, or type them up.
OCR does not work due to all the symbols etc. I ended up typing them / conert them to decimal format.

If you want Vancouver VTA points, I can email you a GPX file or CVS which you can import...RVgrin wrote:Clearly the man wants the data in an electronic format. Come to think of it, I wouldn't mind it if my Garmin 396 had VFR waypoints....

Very kind of you.Ataman wrote:If you want Vancouver VTA points, I can email you a GPX file or CVS which you can import...
Are you ok if I post a link to the data online? I'd like other pilots to benefit from it, point out any errors, and be encouraged to upload reporting points from other locations.
What would be the best forum for this? Some off-the-top-of-my-head ideas:
- COPA (e.g. http://www.copanational.org/placestofly.cfm )
- AVCANADA, one thread per VTA (e.g. Vancouver, Toronto, etc.). Can data files be attached here?
- Wikipedia ?
- A dedicated wiki at some free hosting place like http://www.wikispaces.com/
- Some geo mapping site that can also display them?
- ???

I have compiled a GPX file containing the VFR reporting points for the Vancouver area. I've posted it online here: http://www.naviatorapp.com/vancouver_vfr_wpts.gpx
