The geographic coordinates of an ARP are part of an aerodrome's entry in the aeronautical information publication, AIP. Internationally, the rules governing the establishment of an aerodrome reference point are defined by the ICAO in section 2.2 of Annex 14 to the Chicago Convention on International Civil Aviation, Convention on International Civil Aviation. They state that: In the United States, the term ''airport reference point'' is used and defined as "the approximate geometric center of all usable runway surfaces", computed as a weighted average of the end of runway coordinates.
