'''[[Template:GCM]]''' generates an external link to an airport information page at the Great Circle Mapper website. The links are used as a reference in airport articles when a better source is not available online (such as a link to the [[Aeronautical Information Publication]]).

=== Usage ===
The template requires one unnamed parameter which can be either the [[International Air Transport Association airport code|IATA]] or the [[International Civil Aviation Organization airport code|ICAO]] airport [[location identifier]].

{| class="wikitable"
! Code:
| <code><nowiki>{{GCM|AAA}}</nowiki></code>
|-
! Result:
| {{GCM|AAA}}
|}

{| class="wikitable"
! Code:
| <code><nowiki>{{GCM|ZMAT}}</nowiki></code>
|-
! Result:
| {{GCM|ZMAT}}
|}

An optional second unnamed parameter can be used to display the airport name in place of the identifier.

{| class="wikitable"
! Code:
| <code><nowiki>{{GCM|AAA|Anaa Airport}}</nowiki></code>
|-
! Result:
| {{GCM|AAA|Anaa Airport}}
|}

{| class="wikitable"
! Code:
| <code><nowiki>{{GCM|ZMAT|Altai Airport}}</nowiki></code>
|-
! Result:
| {{GCM|ZMAT|Altai Airport}}
|}

The optional '''source''' parameter can be used to specify the source of the data as shown on the website. If the source is [[DAFIF]] the template adds the text "(effective Oct. 2006)".

{| class="wikitable"
! Code:
| <code><nowiki>{{GCM|CAB|Cabinda Airport|source=[[DAFIF]]}}</nowiki></code>
|-
! Result:
| {{GCM|CAB|Cabinda Airport|source=[[DAFIF]]}}
|}

{| class="wikitable"
! Code:
| <code><nowiki>{{GCM|BIKF|source=[[AIP Iceland]], [[DAFIF]], [[NOAA]]}}</nowiki></code>
|-
! Result:
| {{GCM|BIKF|source=[[AIP Iceland]], [[DAFIF]], [[NOAA]]}}
|}

{| class="wikitable"
! Code:
| <code><nowiki>{{GCM|AAJ|source=}}</nowiki></code>
|-
! Result:
| {{GCM|AAJ|source=}}
|}
