Description: U.S. National Atlas Airports represents airports in the United States, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, and U.S. Possessions with airport passenger enplanements of greater than or equal to 100 passengers per year.
Description: This dataset represents a subset of the ADAMS dataset. The ADAMS 'Communication Center' dataset contains names of all air medical communication or dispatch centers, along with their address, phone numbers, dispatch & flight following protocols, selected communication frequencies and specialized communication &/or aircraft equipment (for search & rescue, aircraft tracking, etc.). The AMSP_ID relates Communication Center data records back to the appropriate Air Medical Service Provider. Additional context and background on ADAMS is provided below. The Atlas & Database of Air Medical Services (ADAMS) is a national database containing information on all rotor and fixed wing air medical services in the United States which provide trauma scene response and/or inter-hospital transport. ADAMS was developed by the Calspan - University of Buffalo Research Center's (CUBRC) Center for Transportation Injury Research (CenTIR), in alliance with the Association of Air Medical Services (AAMS) and the air medical industry. Funding for ADAMS was initially provided by USDOT. However, as of October 1, 2013, ADAMS updates are funded by AAMS. ADAMS contains both descriptive and geographic information on more about 300 air medical services in five data categories: 1) Service Provider Administration, 2) Communication Center, 3) Base Helipads/Airports, 4) Rotor & Fixed Wing Aircraft, and 5) Major Receiving Hospitals (for emergency transports). ADAMS includes both commercial and not-for-profit air medical services, as well as public safety air medical services (police and fire) and selected military air medical units which complement civilian air medical transport in remote areas (e.g., Coast Guard and National Guardunits in Alaska).
Description: The ADAMS 'Base Helipads / Airports' dataset contains the names of all airports, hospitals and stand-alone helipads, which serve as base locations for the rotor wing (RW) and/or fixed wing (FW) aircraft flown by air medical services. Attribution includes base street address, latitude/longitude, FAA identifier (if defined), type aircraft at base (e.g., RW, FW or both), helipad/airport characteristics (lights, LZ size, rooftop weight limitations, etc.), fuel storage, type medical crew at base (RN, paramedic, MD, etc.), maintenance support, major receiving hospitals (for trauma) in base vicinity, etc. The AMSP_ID is used to relate Base Helipad / Airport data records back to the appropriate Air Medical Service Provider.

Description: The ADAMS 'Base Helipads / Airports' dataset contains the names of all airports, hospitals and stand-alone helipads, which serve as base locations for the rotor wing (RW) and/or fixed wing (FW) aircraft flown by each air medical service. Data includes base street address, latitude/longitude, FAA identifier (if defined), type aircraft at base (e.g., RW, FW or both), helipad/airport characteristics (lights, LZ size, rooftop weight limitations, etc.), fuel storage, type medical crew at base (RN, paramedic, MD, etc.), maintenance support, major receiving hospitals (for trauma) in base vicinity, etc. The AMSP_ID is used to relate Base Helipad / Airport data records back to the appropriate Air Medical Service Provider.

Description: The ADAMS 'Receiving Hospital' dataset contains the names of hospitals identified by the air medical services as the usual destinations for trauma or emergency medical transports in their service area. This is NOT a complete list of all hospitals in the area. Receiving Hospital attributes include address, phone number, hospital landing zone description (size, lights, etc), lat/long, hospital type (trauma, non-trauma, pediatric) and trauma center level (Level 1,2,3,4) if applicable. (Note that trauma center levels are subject to change). The AMSP_ID is used to relate 'Receiving Hospital' data records back to the appropriate Air Medical Service Provider.

Description: FSTopo_Airfield_PT portrays Helipads, Helispots, Seaplane Anchorages or Bases. This feature class was derived from the Cartographic Feature File (CFF).Within the FSTopo database, features are represented as lines, points, or polygons, with descriptive subtype attribute codes attached to describe the cartographic symbology characteristics of features. Annotation features are represented as stand-alone map text collected relative to the scale of the topographic quadrangle. The FSTopo database was originally populated with Cartographic Feature File (CFF) data which was digitized from either the Primary Base Series (PBS) quadrangles or U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) topographic map series quadrangles. Over time, the legacy CFF data is being replaced (at least partially) with data from nationally standardized sources. Data completeness reflects the content of the original source graphic, digital correction guide information, stereoscopic source, monoscopic source, supplemented with cadastral source information. Forests and Quadrangles may have undergone revision at varying dates. The update revision uses a variety of sources, including Digital Orthophoto Quad (DOQ) imagery, NAIP imagery, cadastral information, other vector data sources, and field-prepared correction guides in hardcopy or digital format.
