How to load NAVDATA for phpVMS
-------------

This script needs to be cleaned up and fixed, it's mostly hardcoded.
Change the database parameters in the "db.php" file. If you set it to
your phpVMS database, it will right directly to the proper phpvms_navdata
table. 

If not writing directly to phpVMS, use the following SQL to create the table:


CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `phpvms_navdata` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `name` varchar(7) NOT NULL,
  `title` varchar(25) NOT NULL,
  `airway` varchar(7) DEFAULT NULL,
  `airway_type` varchar(1) DEFAULT NULL,
  `seq` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `loc` varchar(4) NOT NULL,
  `lat` float(8,6) NOT NULL,
  `lng` float(9,6) NOT NULL,
  `freq` varchar(7) NOT NULL,
  `type` int(11) NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`),
  KEY `name` (`name`),
  KEY `airway` (`airway`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM  DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=89432 ;




Getting the data
--------------

Some of this data can be huge

In the faa folder, download the FAA 56 day NASR Subscription:
http://nfdc.faa.gov/fadds/index.jsp

This requires a free subscription. They do send update notices when a new
56-day is available.

Extract the zip into the faa folder (so all the files are in that folder)

Next, get the XPLANE data, from:
http://data.x-plane.com/get_data.html

Download the X-Plane 9.00 version. Extract that into the xplane folder 
That will add a Resources folder with data in that.

The import script will attempt to get the latest fsbuild data, if not,
you can download it from the FSBUILD home page, and extract the files 
in the FSBUILD folder



Running the script
----------------

On the command line, to set the permissions:

  chmod +x ./importdata
 
Then run it:

  ./importdata

That will write the temporary nav to the phpvms_navdata table, and then
create a dump of the navdata.sql file as well. You should be set then
