Exporting AIXM 4.5 data using geoprocessing (Aviation)

This topic applies to ArcGIS for Desktop Advanced only.

This tool requires the ArcGIS Data Interoperability extension for Desktop .

The Export AIS To AIXM 4.5 tool supports the most robust AIXM 4.5 data available and is based on the rules and relationships set by the AICM/AIXM 4.5 standards. The Export AIS To AIXM 4.5 tool allows you to create an AIXM 4.5 XML message from your geodatabase. This gives you the ability to manage and share your aviation data by using ArcGIS for Aviation: Charting.
