# Offline Airport API
A simple Android Library to get Nearest Airport(s) from latitude,longitude using a local json data
(~28K airports).
Local data is sourced from [here.](https://github.com/mwgg/Airports)
## Why(s) and Good(s)
- Ability to get nearest airport without a webservice call.
- Can be used as a cache mechanism in case webservice call takes longer time.
- Can be used as a fallback mechanism if webservice fails.(Server error, user is not connected to
internet)
## Bad(s)
- Although data set is exhaustive, it's not an updated one.
- Library size (~ 1.6 MB)
## Usage
Create a Request
AirportRequest airportRequest = new AirportRequest();
airportRequest.setLatitude("28.632907");
airportRequest.setLongitude("77.219536");
Initialize library
OfflineAirportApi offlineAirportApi = new OfflineAirportApi(this);
Get Single Nearest Airport
//Must be called asynchronously
AirportResponse airportResponse = offlineAirportApi.getNearestAirport(airportRequest);
Get Multiple Nearest Airports
//Set a minimum distance limit from current location. Has a default value of 50,000m
offlineAirportApi.setDistanceLimit(25000);
//Must be called asynchronously
ArrayList airportResponses = offlineAirportApi.getNearestAirports(airportRequest);
**Check Sample App for Usage.**
## TODO
- Check for more sources of data.
- Handle calculation asynchronously within the library.
- Ability to detect location using GPS from library.
