Title: MH370 ATC and air routes map
Credit: Own work Flight path traced from: MH370 – Definition of Underwater Search Areas (pg.3; Since the location of the aircraft is a fact, not a creative work, and the map traced purports to show the path that Flight 370 traveled based on primary & secondary radar, the flight path is not subject to copyright.) The following sources were used to determine air routes in the area (name & which waypoints they pass through) and the coordinates of waypoints & FIR boundaries (These sources were referenced for coordinates of waypoints--which are facts, not subject to copyright): SkyVector (To determine routes in area & waypoints they pass) ICAO 2014 FIR WORLD (FIR boundaries) Malaysia, Singapore, & Thailand AIPs (specifically sections: ENR 2.1 [FIR boundaries]; ENR 3.1 & ENR 3.3 [Air routes]; ENR 4.1 & ENR 4.3 [Waypoints]) openNav (A couple waypoint coordinates, namely in Vietnam which doesn't have their AIP freely accessible online) Background image created from: Natural Earth (1:10m Physical Vectors; public domain) US Dept. of State (Small Scale International Boundaries; public domain) Made in accordance with Wikipedia map conventions (namely, the locator map colors & use of the svg template for colors/fonts/icons).
