Creating a course reversal procedure leg

The Procedure Leg PI function creates a course reversal procedure leg feature based on a single defined coordinate and other input parameters.

Étapes :

1. Start ArcMap.
   Conseil :

   If the ArcMap - Getting Started dialog box appears, you can open a new or existing map document. You can also check the Do not show this dialog box in the future check box and click Open.

2. On the menu bar, click Customize > Toolbars > Production Feature Builder.
3. Click the Launch Feature Builder button on the Production Feature Builder toolbar.

   The Feature Builder window appears in ArcMap.

   Conseil :

   The Feature Builder window can be placed anywhere in ArcMap, or in the TOC, with the aid of the arrows showing the possible placement positions.

4. Choose Procedure Leg PI in the list on the Functions tab.

5. Define a coordinate for the start point of the polyline by doing one of the following:
   • Clicking the Pinprick button on the Production Feature Builder toolbar, then clicking on the map
   • Typing the coordinates in the cells on the Input tab in the Coordinates area
   Conseil :

   To view the input coordinates on the map, double-click the row headers for each coordinate.

6. Click the cell next to Distance For First Turn and type a value.

   This is the distance from the specified coordinate to the first turn. The default unit is Nautical Miles.

   Conseil :

   You can right-click the parameter name and change the unit of measurement. If you change the unit of measurement after defining a value, the value is converted to the new unit of measurement, and you may need to redefine the value.

7. Click the cell next to Azimuth and type a value for the angle at which the procedure leg is going to be oriented.

   This is the angle for the procedure leg from the specified coordinate. The default unit is degrees.

   Conseil :

   You can right-click the parameter name and change the unit of measurement. If you change the unit of measurement after defining a value, the value is converted to the new unit of measurement, and you may need to redefine the value.

8. If necessary, click the cell next to MagVar Value and type a value for the magnetic variation.

   This can be a specified value or from a field defined in the MagVar Source parameter. The default unit is degrees.

You can right-click the parameter name and change the unit of measurement. If you change the unit of measurement after defining a value, the value is converted to the new unit of measurement, and you may need to redefine the value.

9. If necessary, click the drop-down arrow next to MagVar Source and choose a source for the magnetic variation.

   This is the source of the magnetic variation value.

10. If necessary, click the drop-down arrow next to MagVar Year and choose a different year for the World Magnetic Model.

    This is the year associated with the magnetic variation value.

11. If necessary, click the drop-down arrow next to Clockwise and choose False.

    This indicates whether the procedure leg is created in a clockwise direction. There are two options:

    • True—The procedure leg is created in a clockwise direction from the Distance For First Turn to the end of the procedure leg.
    • False—The procedure leg is created in a counterclockwise direction from the end of the procedure leg to the Distance For First Turn of the procedure leg.
12. Click the cell next to Distance After 45 Turn to 180 Turn and type a value.

    This is the distance between the first turn and the 180-degree turn. The default unit is Nautical Miles.

    Conseil :

    You can right-click the parameter name and change the unit of measurement. If you change the unit of measurement after defining a value, the value is converted to the new unit of measurement, and you may need to redefine the value.

13. Click the cell next to Turn Radius and type a value.

    This is the radius of the 180-degree turn. The default unit is Nautical Miles.

    Conseil :

    You can right-click the parameter name and change the unit of measurement. If you change the unit of measurement after defining a value, the value is converted to the new unit of measurement, and you may need to redefine the value.

    Conseil :

    To correctly create the course reversal procedure leg, the radius must be at least half the value specified for Distance After 45 Turn to 180 Turn.

14. Click the Execute button .

A line is created representing a course reversal procedure leg.

Conseil :

If the segment does not appear, click the Add Scratch Data Layers button at the top of the Feature Builder window.
