Hello,
I am creating my own airspace library using the OPEN AIR format. I do understand the classes in the below list but I need to class some areas as MOA but I don't know which AC Class I must assign among this list:
**************************************************************************
AIRSPACE related record types:
==============================
AC class    ;    class = Airspace Class, see below:
*     R restricted
*     Q danger
*     P prohibited
*     A Class A
*     B Class B
*     C Class C
*     D Class D
*     GP glider prohibited
*     CTR CTR
*     W Wave Window

*************************************************************************

1. Which class should I use to create an area with the MOA status ?

2. What class matches with all types available in LNM?

3. Which file includes all areas currently available in LNM and where is it located? By reading the file, I would be able to understand...

Thanks in advance for your help.

It's decoded right here: https://github.com/albar965/atools/blob/164106b951ea78b962a5ec1ef8e0c28da125a8ed/src/fs/userdata/airspacereaderopenair.cpp#L269-L306
and the list is derived from this documentation here: http://winpilot.com/usersguide/userairspace.asp

Seems MOA is not yet implemented in the format. I could change the code for the next version to pass anything unknown as is to the LNM database.

Hi Alex,

Thanks for your reply.

Are all of the L269-L306 area types implemented? I tried W and GP for testing purpose and there is no airspace shown in the map. RMZ works as class G...

I will temporarely use G airspace to display my TRA/TSA as there is no G airspace in France. Thanks anyway and waiting for a further implementation of MOA and Military Use airspace...

Cheers

Yes. All implemented like here: https://github.com/albar965/littlenavmap/blob/75efdb467255f1c7f0b3492ace8457ecd08c1611/src/common/maptypes.cpp#L556-L591

Well, Mode C was wrongly written as "MC" instead of required "MD". Fixed for next.

If I rely on your last post, the line 574 is the code for MOA : {"M", map::MOA}, so If I assign M to AC class, area should be shown if I select MOA in the selector.

Unfortunately, it is not happening... 

Image 1: areas are G class, all shown.

Image 2: area TSA6 is M class and doesn't show.

Is there anything wrong in my process?

I may have misuunderstood 😉

This is the problem I mentioned earlier. The function inserts an airspace with empty type if the code is not in the list (first link I posted) and the airspace is ignored.
I'll change this for the next version to pass unknown values on so you can use the LNM definitions as well. Already noted.
