Visual Segment Surface Obstacle Data for Campo de Marte Airport

A methodology study by FÁBIO ANDERSON BATISTA DOS SANTOS developed a Geographic Information System to support managing obstacles in the Visual Segment Surface at airports. The case study focuses on Campo de Marte Airport in São Paulo, where obstacles can derail instrument approach procedures. The study used GIS desktop and WEBGIS tools for spatial analysis and querying based on analytical geometry.

Use Cases

• Identifying obstacles that infringe on Visual Segment Surfaces based on spatial analysis concepts mentioned in the description.
• Supporting airport safety management decisions regarding instrument approach procedures based on the case study.
• Integrating two-dimensional spatial analysis with geometric queries for obstacle assessment as described in the methodology.

Strengths

• Methodology is applied to a specific real-world case study at Campo de Marte Airport.
• The study describes using both GIS desktop and WEBGIS tools for analysis.

Limitations

• Row count and dataset size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified.
