The service offers aeronautical aerodrome map layers based on a graphical representation (i.e. portrayal) of aerodrome mapping data (AMD).
Note: A map is the result of a request to portray information represented by one or more layers.
The service conforms with the OGC Web Map Service 1.3.0 Interface Standard. The EPSG:3857 coordinate reference system is used for the projection. If an aeronautical aerodrome map layer corresponds to one of the layers listed in Appendix B, the layer name in Appendix B is used to expose the capabilities of the service. If the service consumer requests a combination of layers exposed by the service, the generation of the aeronautical aerodrome map is according to the OGC Web Map Service 1.3.0 Interface Standard.
The layers are based on AIXM 5.1 AMD Features with geometry. Naming and grouping of the layers is defined according to the Appendix B.
Note: The GetCapabilities operation exposes the available layers, styles and coordinate reference systems.
Note: The coordinate reference system and naming of the layers used in the service are subject to the requirements provided in this service definition.
