The missiondevelop and maintain a universal database of aeronautical data, in order to facilitate the rendering of high quality VFR maps to assist the general aviation community. As the name suggests, a key part of the project is that it is an open source project which coordinates the work of a large community of volunteer contributors. Posláním je rozvoj a udržování univerzální databáze leteckých informací tak, aby se usnadnilo poskytování kvalitních leteckých VFR map, které by pomohly celé letecké komunitě. Jak již název napovídá, klíčovou součástí projektu je, že jde o open source projekt, který koordinuje práci velké skupiny dobrovolných přispěvatelů.

The database is administered by the open flightmaps association, or OFMA, a “not for profit” organization constituted especially for this purpose, which has the support of two universities and several associations of pilots and other organizations within the General Aviation community The structure of the OFMA database closely follows the AIXM Model recommended by Eurocontrol. The open flightmaps association (OFMA) grants you, under the OFMA General Users´ License a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license to use the data contained in the OFM Database, provided you abide by the conditions of the license. These rights explicitly include commercial use, and do not exclude any field of endeavour. To the extent possible these rights may be exercised in all media and formats whether now known or created in the future. Databáze je spravována sdružením otevřených leteckých map (OFMA), nezisková organizace vytvořená zejména pro tento účel, která má podporu dvou univerzit a několika sdružení pilotů a dalších organizací v rámci obecné letecké komunity. Databáze OFMA pečlivě sleduje model AIXM doporučený společností Eurocontrol. Sdružení Open Airplane Association (OFMA) uděluje celosvětovou, bezplatnou, nevýhradní licenci na používání dat obsažených v databázi OFM, za předpokladu, že budete dodržovat podmínky licence definované v OFMA General Users´ License.

Release of Italy

22. June 2018

Openflightmaps will once again add another territory, Italy, to the countries covered by the project. This will take the new total up to 19 countries supported by the project.

It is important to emphasize that each one of these 19 territories require constant and rigorous maintenance, to ensure that all of the information is always current. The rate of progress is encouraging, since so far three new territories have been added in 2018, and there are some more in the pipeline.

Finland Release

4. April 2018

In early April 2018 openflightmaps will once again add another territory, Finland, to the countries covered by the project. This will take the new total up to 18 countries supported by the project. With Finland the openflightmaps project reaches into the Artic Circle, the furthest north of all of the territories supported by openflightmaps.

It is important to emphasize that each one of these 18 territories require constant and rigorous maintenance, to ensure that all of the information is always current. The rate of progress is encouraging, since so far two new territories have been added in 2018, and there are some more in the pipeline.
