Enumeration for common types of FAA location identifiers.<br/>
Attribute
Public
  Airport
Details:
Notes: An airport is an area of land or water used or intended to be used for the landing and taking off of aircraft, per the Airport Improvement Program (AIP) Handbook.<br/>
Public
  ARTCC
Details:
Notes: Air Route Traffic Control Center (ARTCC) - A facility established to provide air traffic control service to aircraft operating on IFR flight plans within controlled airspace and principally during the en route phase of flight. When equipment capabilities and controller workload permit, certain advisory/assistance services may be provided to VFR aircraft, per the FAA Pilot/Controller Glossary.<br/>
Public
  ATCSCC
Details:
Notes: Air Traffic Control System Command Center (ATCSCC) - An Air Traffic Tactical Operations facility responsible for monitoring and managing the flow of air traffic throughout the NAS, producing a safe, orderly, and expeditious flow of traffic while minimizing delays, per the FAA  Pilot/Controller Glossary.<br/>
Public
  ATCT
Details:
Notes: Air Traffic Control Tower (ATCT) - A terminal facility that uses air/ground communications, visual signaling, and other devices to provide ATC services to aircraft operating in the vicinity of an airport or on the movement area. Authorizes aircraft to land or takeoff at the airport controlled by the tower or to transit the Class D airspace area regardless of flight plan or weather conditions (IFR or VFR). A tower may also provide approach control services (radar or nonradar), per the FAA  Pilot/Controller Glossary.<br/>
Public
  CERAP
Details:
Notes: Center Radar Automated Radar Terminal System Processing (CENRAP) - A software/hardware modification that provides backup alphanumeric information using target data received by the Automated Radar Terminal System (ARTS) equipment via the en route automation computer system through the existing Interfacility Data Service (IDAT) NAS/ARTS interface. An azimuth pulse generator provides display sweep if needed (CENRAP plus). Interruption reporting of the Terminal Automated Radar Service (TARS) is required during CENRAP operation (see desk guide for TARS reporting requirements), per JO 6040.15 Appendix C: Combined Center/RAPCON.<br/>
Public
  TRACON
Details:
Notes: Terminal Radar Approach Control (TRACON) - A terminal ATC facility that uses radar and nonradar capabilities to provide approach control services to aircraft arriving, departing, or transiting airspace controlled by the facility, per the FAA Pilot/Controller Glossary.<br/>
