Map
Where accidents and incidents happened. Points are placed by OpenAirDocs: NTSB’s coordinates where it gives them, otherwise the airport or town a record names, placed from public-domain place lists.
Each size holds about a sixth of the dots in view; the number under it is where it starts. Zoom in to see each record.
- The agency’s coordinate, or offset from an airport
- An airport
- A town’s center
NTSB’s coordinates where it gives them; otherwise OpenAirDocs placed the event at the airport or town a record names.
Each investigation at NTSB’s own coordinate where it gives one; otherwise OpenAirDocs placed it at the airport NTSB names or the nearest town it names.
Each FAA accident and incident report at its NTSB investigation’s point when the two are linked; otherwise OpenAirDocs placed it at the airport or town the report names.
How each point was placed, and how far off it can be, is in the release’s geo_ tables.
