YAIXM to GeoJSON Converter
A utility that converts YAIXM format into GeoJSON for Node. This tool is intended to work with the YAIXM format
used in the unofficial UK Airspace Repository. Currently, the logic only
supports reading airspace YAIXM definitions.
Internally, the logic uses parts of our OpenAIR Parser to also validate the given YAIXM definitions.
Reads YAIXM airspace definition:

node cli.js -h
Usage: cli [options]
Options:
-f, --input-filepath <inputFilepath> The input file path to the YAIXM file.
-o, --output-filepath <outputFilepath> The output filename of the generated GeoJSON file.
-T, --type The type to read from YAIXM file. Currently only "airspace" is supported. (default: "airspace")
-V, --validate If specified, converter will validate geometries.
-F, --fix-geometry If specified, converter will try to fix geometries.
-S, --strict-schema-validation If specified, converter will strictly validate the created GeoJSON against the underlying schema. If the GeoJSON does not match the JSON schema, the converter will throw an error.
-h, --help Outputs usage information.Simple command line usage:
node cli.js --type=airspace -f ./path/to/input-yaixm-file.txt -o ./path/to/output-geojson-file.geojson
