CodeContaminationType

urn:aero:airm:1.0.0:LogicalModel:Subjects:AirTrafficOperations:Codelists:CodeContaminationType

A code indicating the types of substances which can contaminate aerodrome movement areas.

Source: EUROCONTROL-FAA AIXM v.5.1


Properties:

Properties Definition Type
CLEAR_AND_DRY No contamination is present so conditions are clear and dry.

enum value

WET_SNOW Snow which, if compacted by hand, will stick together and tend to or form a snowball; specific gravity: 0.35 up to but not including 0.5.

enum value

WET Wet or water patches.

enum value

VOLCANIC_ASH Ash from volcanic activity.

enum value

SLUSH Water-saturated snow which with a heel-and-toe slap down motion against the ground will be displaced with a splatter; specific gravity: 0.5 up to 0.8. Note.- Combinations of ice, snow and/or standing water may, especially when rain, rain and snow, or snow is falling, produce substances with specific gravities in excess of 0.8. These substances, due to their high water/ice content, will have a transparent rather than a cloudy appearance and, at the higher specific gravities, will be readily distinguishable from slush.

enum value

SAND Sand.

enum value

RUBBER Rubber deposits.

enum value

RIME_OR_FROST_COVERED Rime or Frost covered (depth less than 1 mm)

enum value

OIL Oil and gas.

enum value

ICE Ice.

enum value

GRASS Overgrown grass

enum value

FROZEN_RUTS_OR_RIDGES Frozen ruts or ridges.

enum value

DRY_SNOW Snow which can be blown if loose or, if compacted by hand, will fall apart again upon release; specific gravity: up to but not including 0.35.

enum value

DAMP A wee bit wet.

enum value

COMPACTED_OR_ROLLED_SNOW Snow which has been compressed into a solid mass that resists further compression and will hold together or break up into lumps if picked up; specific gravity: 0.5 and over.
