is a very powerful feature that uses the
separation between the aircraft and the
land elevation to highlight the dangerous
land elevations, allowing the map to be
more easily and readily interpreted. To
enable TAWS function, Land Elevation
needs to be enabled in “objects” . TAWS
has two settings: 500 feet Separation and
1000 feet Separation. The colour shading
is based on Obstacle Clearance Height
(OCH). In case of 1000 feet SEP setting
all terrain with an OCH value under 1000
feet are highlighted in red, while a 500
feet SEP highlights all terrain with an
OCH value under 500 feet.
