TAWS Symbols

The symbols and colors in the following figure and

table are used to represent obstacles and potential impact

points on the TAWS Page. TAWS uses yellow (caution)

and red (warning) to depict terrain information relative

to aircraft altitude. Each color is associated with an alert

severity level. Terrain graphics and visual annunciations

also use these color assignments.

Note that obstacle symbols are shown on display

zoom ranges up to 10 NM.
