ourairports_search_airportsSearch 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 airp

ourairports_get_airportFetch 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 resolution_note naming which space matched, so a wrong resolution from an ambiguous national code is self-correcting
-
ourairports_find_airportsFind 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_clos
-
ourairports_find_navaidsFind 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). Frequencies are stored in kHz for every navaid type (a VOR on 114.5 MHz reads frequencyKhz 114500) and are also surf

ourairports_list_countriesList 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.
