[edit] Parameters

All parameters except name are optional.

[edit] Airport name

These parameters specify the airport name which is displayed at the top of the infobox.

name

The name of the airport in English, such as Warsaw Frederic Chopin Airport or Beijing Capital International Airport.

nativename

Airport name in a native language using Western characters (French, German, Spanish, etc.), such as Port Lotniczy im. Fryderyka Chopina. Can also be used for two different names in the same language (see Toronto Pearson International Airport).

nativename-a

Airport name in a native language with non-Western characters (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, etc.), such as 北京首都国际机场.

nativename-r

Use in conjunction with above for Romanized name of the airport, such as Běijīng Shǒudū Guójì Jīcháng.

[edit] Airport image

These parameters specify an airport photograph or logo which is displayed below the title. A second image can also be displayed below the first image by using the parameter names ending with a "2".

image

image2

The name of image file, i.e. airport.png or logo.gif, etc.

image-width

image-width2

The image width in pixels, i.e. 175 (defaults to 200 if not specified). This parameter should only be used for small images that appear distorted when expanded to a width of 200 pixels.

caption

caption2

Text displayed beneath the image. This should only be used for photographs that require an explanation; it should be omitted for aerial photographs or airport logos.

[edit] Airport codes

These parameters specify airport location identifiers which are displayed below the image (or below title if there is no image):

IATA

The airport's three character IATA location identifier. If omitted or left blank it will display as IATA: none.

ICAO

The airport's four character ICAO location identifier. If omitted or left blank it will display as ICAO: none.

FAA

The three or four character FAA location identifier for airports in the United States. If omitted or left blank, nothing is displayed.

LID

A location identifier for airports outside the United States, if different than ICAO or IATA codes. If omitted or left blank, nothing is displayed.

[edit] Airport summary

These parameters specify airport details for the "Summary" section displayed below the airport codes.

type

Airport type should be one of the following: Public, Private or Military. Do not use Commercial, General or Civil.

owner

Name of the airport owner.

operator

Name of the airport operator, if different than the owner.

owner-oper

If the airport is owned and operated by the same entity, use this in place of owner and operator.

city-served

If the airport is associated with a major city but actually located in a smaller town, list the major city here and the smaller town under location. This is not automatically linked, in order to allow multiple links if needed.

Example: city-served = [[Paris]]

Result: Paris

location

Name of the town or city where the airport is located. This is not automatically linked, in order to allow multiple links if needed.

Example: location = [[Orly]], [[France]]

Result: Orly, France

elevation-f

Height above mean sea level, in feet.

elevation-m

Height above mean sea level, in meters.

coordinates

Latitude and Longitude of airport, specified using the {{coord}} template. When entering the coordinates always ensure that the resultant map or image shows the airport. It is very easy to confuse "N" for "S" or "E" for "W". If used as shown below, this will also cause the airport to appear in Google Earth's Geographic Web Layer.

Example: coordinates = {{coord|49|27|16|N|002|06|46|E|type:airport|display=inline}}

Result: 49°27′16″N 002°06′46″E / 49.45444, 2.11278

website

External link to the airport's official website. See Wikipedia: External links #How to link for more information.

Example: website = [http://www.dfwairport.com/ www.dfwairport.com]

Result: www.dfwairport.com

[edit] Military airports

These optional parameters provide additional information for military airports. The parameter names are based on those used in Template:Infobox Military Structure. This allows the display of information from that template, without the need to include an additional infobox. For an example, see Davis-Monthan Air Force Base.

built

The date when the structure was built, usually given in years.

used

The period during which the structure was in active military use, usually given in years.

commander

The current commanding officer, for structures currently in military use.

occupants

Any notable military units which occupy the structure.

[edit] Infobox control

These parameters control how the infobox is displayed.

metric-elev

Set to any value to display elevation in metric units (meters) before Imperial units (feet); leave blank to display Imperial units first. This can be seen in example 1.

metric-rwy

Set to any value to display runway length in metric units (meters) before Imperial units (feet); leave blank to display Imperial units first. Example 1 and 2 below show the runway length with meters first; example 3 and 4 show it with feet before meters.

[edit] Runways

These parameters specify details for each runway in the "Runways" section displayed below the summary. This can also be used to specify water landing areas for seaplanes (see Fairbanks International Airport). Parameters start with r1- for the first runway, r2- for the second runway, up to r8- for the eighth runway (if more are needed, leave a message on the talk page). Each airport should have at least one runway.

r_n-number (r1-number, r2-number, ...)

The designation of the runway, normally two numbers like this → 02/20, 1st number is 18 lower than the 2nd. Where there are parallel runways an additional letter is added to each number, for example "L" for left, "R" for right and "C" for center. In certain cases a runway will only have one number when it can only be used in one direction. For airports in the United States the leading zero is not used and the designation should read 2/20.

r_n-length-f (r1-length-f, r2-length-f, ...)

Runway length in feet.

r_n-length-m (r1-length-m, r2-length-m, ...)

Runway length in meters.

r_n-surface (r1-surface, r2-surface, ...)

Runway surface type, such as: Concrete, Asphalt, Gravel, Grass (or Turf), Dirt, Water, etc. Avoid the generic type "Paved" if possible.

[edit] Helipads

These parameters specify details for each helipad in the "Helipads" section displayed below the runways. Parameters start with h1- for the first helipad, h2- for the second helipad, up to h12- for the twelfth helipad (if more are needed, leave a message on the talk page). This section is optional and only appears if the h1- parameters are specified. See example 1 and example 3 below.

h_n-number(h1-number, h2-number, ...)

The designation of the helipad. In the United States this is usually the letter "H" followed by a number, i.e. "H1", "H2", etc.

h_n-length-f (h1-length-f, h2-length-f, ...)

Helipad length in feet.

h_n-length-m (h1-length-m, h2-length-m, ...)

Helipad length in meters.

h_n-surface (h1-surface, h2-surface, ...)

Helipad surface type, such as: Concrete, Asphalt, etc. Avoid the generic type "Paved" if possible.

[edit] Statistics

These parameters specify details for an optional "Statistics" section displayed below the runways and helipads. Parameters start with stat1- for the first statistic, stat2- for the second statistic, etc. This section only appears if the stat1- parameters are specified. See example 1 and example 3 below.

stat-year

The calendar year for the statistics. This is displayed in parentheses after the word "Statistics" in the section header.

stat_n-header (stat1-header, stat2-header, ...)

A brief description of each statistic, such as Passengers or Aircraft operations.

stat_n-data (stat1-data, stat2-data, ...)

The data associated with the corresponding header.

[edit] Footnotes

This parameter contains text for footnotes displayed at the bottom of the infobox.

footnotes

The most common use for this field is to give sources or references for the data displayed in the infobox. See the examples below.

[edit] Microformat

The HTML mark up produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the place-name and location parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue article across Wikipedia, or via a browser tool operated by a person, to (for example) add the subject to an address book. Within the hCard is a Geo microformat, which additionally makes the coordinates (latitude & longitude) parsable, so that they can be, say, looked up on a map, or downloaded to a GPS unit. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please see the microformat project.

hCard uses HTML classes including:

Geo is produced by calling {{coord}}, and uses HTML classes:

Please do not rename or remove these classes.

When giving coordinates, please don't be overly precise.

[edit] Example 3

Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport

This example uses the {{coord}} template with display=inline,title which displays the coordinates on right side of article's title area directly above infobox AND again inside the infobox. This also causes the title coordinates to appear in a very small font size (due to the combination of the infobox using <small> and title area using font-size:85%). Both issues are resolved in the next example.

[edit] Example 4

Wright-Patterson Air Force Base

This example places the {{coord}} template outside the infobox and uses display=title to display the coordinates in the article's title area. This prevents the coordinates from being displayed a second time inside the infobox. It also eliminates the very small font size shown in the previous example.

The infobox shows the use of an image and linked text over the blue background in title area. It also makes use of some of the fields used for military airports.
