This project is a mac and iOS database for airports worldwide. A Cocoa framework Core Data model and accompanying Objective C classes is used. Runway and frequency information is also included.

This databse is used in the wildly popular NRST: Descent Rate & Airport Finder for iOS.

To get started quickly:

• Create an XCode project
• In the projects directory run:
• $ mkdir lib
• $ git submodule add https://github.com/ckhsponge/iairportsdb.git ./lib/iairportsdb
• In XCode add the group /lib and /lib/iairportsdb
• Select the iairportsdb group
• Right click and Add files to your project
• Select /lib/iairportsdb/db and /lib/iairportsdb/models
• Make sure "Create groups for any added folders" is selected
• You are done!

Now you can find airports using:

• [IADBAirport findNear:(CLLocation *) location withinNM:(CLLocationDistance) distance]
• [IADBAirport findAllByIdentifier:(NSString *) identifier]
• [IADBNavigationAid findNear:(CLLocation *) location withinNM:(CLLocationDistance) distance]
• [IADBNavigationAid findAllByIdentifier:(NSString *) identifier]
• [IADBLocation findNear:(CLLocation *) location withinNM:(CLLocationDistance) distance]
• [IADBLocation findAllByIdentifier:(NSString *) identifier]
