Finding Airports with Locate Airport

The MapMarker Locate Airport feature allows you to locate an airport using a state abbreviation or a
specific airport code. Enter an airport code or two-letter state abbreviation in the text field of the
Search frame. The Search Results box returns the number of successful matches for a state, match
found for an airport code, or no matching records found. After a successful match, the Airport List
field displays the airport code, airport name, state, and latitude/longitude coordinates.

To locate an airport:

1. On the Search menu, click Locate Airport.

The Locate Airport dialog appears.

2. Type the airport code or the state abbreviation in the Airport Code or State Abbreviation field

(for example, ALB for Albany International Airport or NY for all airports in New York).

Fallback

Fallback to ZIP Centroid

Click this option to allow fallback to ZIP Code™ Centroids. If a
close match was not found using the Require Exact Match criteria,
you can still geocode based on ZIP Code centroids.

Fallback to Geographic
Centroid

Click this option to allow fallback to geographic centroids. If a close
match was not found using the Require Exact Match criteria, you
still can geocode based on state, county, or city centroids. These
are not very specific geocoding options, but may be suitable for
certain applications.
