Summary

Creates, modifies, and deletes cartographic features for all the instances maintained and specified for the Aviation Production Database.

This tool only works with the Aeronautical Information System (AIS) Charting model.

Usage

  • Instances maintained must be specified for the Aviation Production Database.

  • Set the Aviation Production Database in the Aviation Properties pane of the Production Properties dialog box.

  • This tool can only be used with the AIS Charting model.

  • Carto Commander deletes orphaned features no longer needed. Orphaned features include the following:

    • Features from an instance no longer present in a Product Library
    • Features no longer associated with a master feature
    • Features that no longer satisfy the extraction query
    • Features based on a carto inclusion that no longer exists

  • This tool always runs in foreground mode. If you run this tool with Background Processing checked on, the tool will automatically switch to foreground processing.
