Navdatareader is a command line tool that uses the atools fs/bgl
and fs/db modules to store a full flight simulator scenery database into
Sqlite, a relational database .

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All BGL features except scenery objects are supported.
* airports including parking, com, fences, aprons, apron lights, helipads,
  start points, taxiways and all runway information.
* Approaches, transitions and the respective legs including coordinates.
* VOR, NDB, ILS, DME, markers and waypoints
* Metadata like BGL files and scenery areas.
* Routes and route waypoints.
* Airspace boundaries including com frequencies.
* The delete airport records are handled for addon airports.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A configuration file includes various settings and filter options to
exclude files, directories, facilities or airports. If the file is not given
the simulator paths will be automatically extracted from the registry and
the conversion process will start.
The default configuration file with comments can be found here:
navdatareader/resources/config/navdatareader.cfg

--------------------
A confguration file to modify logging options can be found here:
navdatareader/resources/config/logging.cfg

--------------------
The database schema is documented in the atools project which contains
the SQL files that create all the needed tables:
* atools/resources/sql/fs/db/create_ap_schema.sql:
  Airports, runways, COM, approaches, transitions and other airport related tables.

* atools/resources/sql/fs/db/create_boundary_schema.sql:
  Airspace boundaries and related frequencies

* atools/resources/sql/fs/db/create_meta_schema.sql:
  Metadata for BGL files and scenery areas.

* atools/resources/sql/fs/db/create_nav_schema.sql:
  VOR, NDB, ILS, waypoints and airways.

* atools/resources/sql/fs/db/create_route_schema.sql:
  Tables needed to route calculation.
