ExportAmxm

Summary

Exports data from an Airports geodatabase to an Aerodrome Mapping Exchange Model (AMXM) 2.0 schema data message.

Discussion

AMXM data can be exported from an ArcGIS for Aviation: Airports enterprise geodatabase with the Airports (18C) schema. This feature retrieves the data and relationships from an Airports schema geodatabase and generates an AMXM XML message representing that data. AMXM messages are XML documents that conform to the AMXM 2.0 XML schema and DO-272D standard.

This tool requires an enterprise geodatabase with the Airports schema. Use this geodatabase as the workspace. This is the name of the geodatabase from which the tool will export data.

Syntax

ExportAmxm (workspace_path, message_path, export_properties, {log_path})
