airportxplaneparser's Issues

Update the unit Tests

Can you explain better README?

Hi Maurizio,
Can you explain better what this project does (use case, scenario..)?
Then you should separate the core logic part from the GUI, and maybe use Java Swing (not awt).
See this link: https://www.guru99.com/java-swing-gui.html
As advice, the best would be a nice simple GUI using Angular in electron (as a desktop app, you can call the jar api in the main node electron process IPC).
Thanks

Taxiway Centerline

The Taxiway parser should be improved to get all the centerlines, also for the apron

Add Gate Parsing
