ARC 1 1:1,000,000 ARC Digitized Raster Graphics (ADRG) Operational Navigational Charts (ONC) World Coverage

Entry ID: Canada_DND_ARC1ADRGONCWorld

[ Update this Record ]

Summary

Abstract: ARC Digitized Raster Graphics (ADRG) is for use in any application
requiring display of a map image or manipulation of the image of a map
in raster form. Digitized Raster Graphics (ADRG) are digital raster
representations of MCE and NIMA's paper graphic products. The
information content of ADRG is the same as that of the base map or
chart. Standard paper maps/charts ...

Purpose: Provide a general purpose data set of support data and computer
readable digital images of hardcopy graphic products for map displays
on command and control systems, mission planning systems, and aircraft
cockpits
