The Waypoint Database
Database
Structure
The Apollo 360 provides an extensive built-in database of
waypoint information to aid the navigator.
Waypoints in the database are divided into 5 categories by
type. This category structure allows you to more easily
select a waypoint as a destination, search for waypoint
information, search for nearest waypoints, or display
waypoints on moving map screens. The database filters
waypoints by these types whenever you use it, controlling,
organizing, and speeding the delivery of information.
The waypoint types are:
Airports (ARPTs)
Non-directional beacons (NDBs)
Very high frequency omniranges (VORs)
Enroute intersections (INTs)
User created (USERs)
