FAR-77 obstructions. Aircraft-movement aprons. Prominent airport buildings. Selected roads <strong>and</strong> other traverse ways. Cultural <strong>and</strong> natural features of l<strong>and</strong>mark value. Miscellaneous <strong>and</strong> special-request items.AOC <strong>surveys</strong> also establish or verify <strong>geodetic</strong> control in the airport vicinity that is accurately connectedto the NSRS. This control <strong>and</strong> the NSRS connection ensure accurate relativity between the points on theairport <strong>and</strong> other surveyed points in the NAS, including GPS navigational satellites. AOC data is usedto-- Develop instrument-approach <strong>and</strong> -departure procedures. Determine the maximum takeoff weights. Certify airports for certain types of operations. Update official aeronautical publications. Provide <strong>geodetic</strong> control for engineering projects related to runway/taxiway construction,NAVAID positioning, obstruction clearing, <strong>and</strong> other airport improvements. Assist in airport planning <strong>and</strong> l<strong>and</strong>-use studies. Support activities such as aircraft accident investigations <strong>and</strong> special-purpose projects.PART A - FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION ANDFEDERAL AVIATION REGULATION STANDARDS6.1 Requirements.

All length <strong>and</strong> width measurements should be determined to the nearest foot. If therunway threshold is displaced, give the distance from the beginning of the runway surface.
