Abstract
This point data layer represents private use heliports in Wisconsin in 2018. The dataset was originally published by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation. This shapefile was originally part of a larger dataset of airport reference points.[Wisconsin Private Use Heliports - Airport Reference Points][Wisconsin Private Use Heliports - Airport Reference Points]
Purpose
This layer is intended for reference and mapping purposes and may be used for basic applications such as viewing, querying, and map output production or to provide a basemap to support graphical overlays and analysis with other spatial data. [The Bureau of Aeronautics manages spatial features and attribute data for the air operations areas at each public use airport within the State of Wisconsin.   Airport References Points (ARP) - An airport reference point (ARP) is the center point of an airport, located at the geometric center of all the usable runways. Buffer rings for each airport have been developed by WisDOT and are based on requirements outlined in the Wisconsin Highway Department's Facilities Development Manual. This data is intended to provide general guidance and airport information for highway construction projects in and around Wisconsin airports, specifically to make contractors and consultants aware of these areas as well as providing contact information for both public and private-use airports.]
