NAME

Geo::ICAO - Airport and ICAO codes lookup

SYNOPSIS

use Geo::ICAO;
...

my @region_codes = all_region_codes();
my @region_names = all_region_names();

EXPORT

Nothing is exported by default. But all the functions described below are exportable: it's up to you to decide what you want to import.

Note that the keyword :all will import everything, and each category of function provides its own keyword.

FUNCTIONS

Regions

The first letter of an ICAO code refer to the region of the airport. The region is quite loosely defined as per the ICAO. This set of functions allow retrieval and digging of the regions.

Note: you can import all those functions with the :region keyword.

. all_region_codes( )

Return the list of all single letters defining an ICAO region. No parameters needed.

. all_region_names( )

Return the list of all ICAO region names. No parameters needed.

. my $code = region2code( $region )

Return the one-letter ICAO $code corresponding to $region. If the region does not exist, return undef.

. my $region = code2region( $code )

Return the ICAO $region corresponding to $code. Note that $code can be a one-letter code (region), two-letters code (country) or a four-letters code (airport): in either case, the region will be returned.

Return undef if the associated region doesn't exist.
