| - | ====== IvAc 2 sector system ====== | + | ====== Sectors.xml ====== |
| - | The sector system in IvAc 2 will implement the following major changes: | + | Sectors are indivisible ATC units of airspace which are defined using one or a number of [[ivac2:firdef_sectors_volumes|volumes]]. Sectors form the base for all coordination and AFTM calculations. |
| - | * 3D definition of each sector, for traffic detection and WebEye display. | + | The ''sectors.xml'' file is located in the ''fir/sectors'' directory |
| - | * The ability to combine and split sectors without reconnecting or changing frequency | + | |
| - | * The ability to activate and deactivate sectors individually | + | |

| - | A **sector** is an indivisible block of airspace which may be activated. Each sector is composed of the following: | + | * TWR |
| + | * APP | ||
| + | * DEP | ||
| + | * ACC | ||
| + | * FSS | ||

| - | + | </code> | |
| - | The sector is defined by one of more volumes of airspace. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | A **volume** is a polygon with a upper and lower level that defines the airspace of a particular sector. A sector with 2 different upper/lower levels such as Y sector would have two volumes. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | Volumes of separate sectors may overlap and the smallest volume will be considered. Reference to the diagram above, in Y sector there is no need to cut out the APP airspace. | + | |
| - | + | ||
| - | Note that DEL, GND, TWR sectors don't have volumes as they are linked to the aerodrome reference point & transfer conditions are different than between airborne sectors. | + | |
