designator TextDesignatorType The designator of a runway, used to uniquely identify it at an aerodrome/heliport.  
type CodeRunwayType The type can be either runway for airplanes or Final Approach and Take-off Area (FATO) for helicopters.  
nominalLength ValDistanceType The declared longitudinal extent of the runway for operational (performance) calculations.  
lengthAccuracy ValDistanceType Accuracy of the value of the physical length of the runway.  
nominalWidth ValDistanceType The declared transversal extent of the runway for operational (performance) calculations.  
widthAccuracy ValDistanceType Accuracy of the value of the physical width of the runway.  
widthShoulder ValDistanceType The runway shoulder width.  
lengthStrip ValDistanceType The physical length of the strip. Where a strip is a defined area including the runway and, if applicable, the stopway.  
widthStrip ValDistanceType The physical width of the strip. Where a strip is a defined area including the runway and, if applicable, the stopway.  
lengthOffset ValDistanceSignedType A value specifying the longitudinal offset of the strip, when it is not symmetrically extended beyond the two runway ends. Where a strip is a defined area including the runway and, if applicable, the stopway.  
widthOffset ValDistanceSignedType A value specifying the lateral offset of the strip, when it is not symmetrically extended beyond the two runway edges. Where a strip is a defined area including the runway and, if applicable, the stopway.  
abandoned CodeYesNoType An indicator that the surface is no longer in operational use, but is still physically present and visible, although usually in a degraded state.
