• ourairports_search_airports

  Search the bundled OurAirports corpus by free-text (name / municipality / keywords) and/or facets (country, region, type). Every query token must match (word order and partial words are handled). Returns ranked airport summaries — operational and larger airports first — each with its full code set and coordinates, ready to chain into ourairports_get_airport. Closed airports are excluded unless include_closed is set. Use ourairports_list_countries for valid country/region codes. For "nearest airport to a coordinate" use ourairports_find_airports instead. OurAirports is community-edited — not authoritative for flight operations.

• ourairports_search_runways

  Search runways across the whole bundled OurAirports corpus by attribute, joined back to their airports — the cross-airport counterpart to ourairports_get_airport (which returns runways for one already-known airport). Filter by airport facets (country, region, type) and runway facets (surface, min_length_ft, min_width_ft, lighted). Returns one flat {airport, runway} row per matching runway, so an airport with three matching runways contributes three rows. `surface` is a case-insensitive substring match against the raw upstream surface string, not an exact code — the runway surface must CONTAIN your text, so a shorter fragment matches more variants (no controlled vocabulary: "asp" matches ASP, ASPH, and Asphalt). Lengths are the full runway surface, including displaced thresholds and overruns — not usable takeoff or landing distance; each runway also reports its displaced threshold per end. A runway whose length or width is unknown is excluded when the matching min_*_ft filter is set — t

• ourairports_get_airport

  Fetch the full record for one airport resolved by ANY code — IATA (SEA), ICAO (KSEA), GPS, national/local, or the OurAirports ident — with its runways and radio frequencies inline. The single `code` param is resolved case-insensitively across all five identifier spaces (priority: ident, then ICAO, IATA, GPS, local). The response always echoes the airport's complete code set and a resolutionNote naming which space matched; when other airports carry the same code, the note names each one (ident, country, code space) and why this airport won, so a wrong resolution is self-correcting — pass the other airport's ident to fetch it. Absent codes are reported as null, never an error. Runway lengths are the full runway surface (displaced thresholds and overruns included), not usable takeoff or landing distance. Closed airports always resolve. OurAirports is community-edited — not authoritative for flight operations.

• ourairports_find_airports

  Find airports within a radius of a latitude/longitude, ranked nearest-first by great-circle distance, each with its distance (km) and bearing (degrees true) from the query point. The grounding tool for "nearest airport to here" — pair it with a live aviation server to fetch weather or positions for the result. Takes a coordinate only: no geocoding, so resolve place names to lat/lon upstream first (e.g. an OpenStreetMap or Open-Meteo geocode tool). Closed airports are excluded unless include_closed is set. totalCount is the in-radius match count before limit; a capped result says so. OurAirports is community-edited — not authoritative for flight operations.

• ourairports_find_navaids

  Find navigation aids (VOR, VOR-DME, DME, NDB, NDB-DME, TACAN, VORTAC) two ways: spatially, by passing latitude+longitude (with an optional radius_km); or relationally, by passing airport_code to get the navaids that serve that airport. Supply exactly one mode — both or neither is a validation error. Coordinate mode ranks nearest-first with distance (km) and bearing (degrees true). frequencyKhz is the stored value for every navaid type (a VOR on 114.5 MHz reads 114500); frequencyMhz carries the VHF frequency of a VOR or VOR-DME and the paired VHF frequency of a DME, TACAN, or VORTAC, and is null for NDB and NDB-DME, which are tuned in kHz. Each navaid also carries its DME paired frequency, usage class, power, and actual and slaved magnetic variation. totalCount is the match count before limit; a capped result says so. Airport mode returns an empty list (not an error) when the airport exists but has no associated navaids; an unknown airport_code is an error. When airport_code is also a c

• ourairports_list_countries

  List the countries present in the bundled OurAirports dataset with their ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes and airport counts. This is the lookup table for valid `country` (and, with include_regions, `region`) filter values used by ourairports_search_airports. Optionally restrict to a continent or nest each country's regions. Counts exclude closed airports.
