Airport Codes?

[ErikGriswold]

Can ArcGIS geocode based solely on the 3-character IATA  airport code and/or the ICAO four-character airport code?

(Or even the 3 or 4-character FAA LID?)

If so what field should be assigned?  Address?  City?

Hi


If you download the airport database from FAA and turn them into point features then yes, you can make a single-field geocoding locator using the airport codes.
