When viewing at ranges close enough to show the
airport detail, the map reveals taxiways with identifying
letters/numbers, airport Hot Spots, and airport landmarks
including ramps, buildings, control towers, and other
prominent features. Resolution is greater at lower map
ranges.
Airport Hot Spots are outlined to caution pilots of
areas on an airport surface where positional awareness
confusion or runway incursions happen most often. Hot
Spots are defined with a magenta circle or outline around
the region of possible confusion.
Any map page that displays the navigation view can
also show the SafeTaxi airport layout within the maximum
configured range.
During ground operations the aircraft’s position is
displayed in reference to taxiways, runways, and airport
features. When panning over the airport, features such
as runway holding lines and taxiways are shown at the
cursor.
