Aviation System Standards, a department within the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), produces more than 10 million individual national airspace charting products per year for use by military, commercial and private aviators. The FAA chose Oracle products to support automating the instrument procedure development and distribution process to produce superior products for use by the aviation community. The FAA selected Oracle Database 10g and Oracle 10g Spatial to create precise electronic maps of the skies. The scalability and advanced spatial functions of Oracle's offerings will allow the FAA to more easily manage large volumes of geospatial data and produce charting that evolves with the changing terrain.
