Hello,
I would like to propose a new tagging scheme for airport communication
frequencies. This proposal creates tags for radio communication frequencies
at airports, which currently has no tagging standard in OpenStreetMap.
Proposed tags:
* communication:ctaf:frequency — Common Traffic Advisory Frequency
* communication:unicom:frequency — Airport services frequency
* communication:tower:frequency — Control tower frequency
* communication:ground:frequency — Ground control frequency
* communication:atis:frequency — Automatic Terminal Information Service
frequency
Currently, the generic frequency key is unsuitable because it cannot
distinguish between these different types of communication channels. This
tagging scheme is globally applicable and would be valuable for flight
planning applications, flight simulator software, and other
aviation-related tools.
Full proposal:

Please discuss this proposal on its talk page.
Please, cross post this announcement on the community forum on my behalf by
posting a message in:
https://community.openstreetmap.org/c/general/tagging/70. Also add the tags
"wiki-proposal" and "rfc".
Best regards,
Dylan Lloyd (FatalFit)
