I desperately need a map of an airport aerodrome like the ones used for tracking the movements of aircraft similar to the picture below and I don't know where I can find these ones :

$\begingroup$ You should try to explain what you plan on using this map for, then it will be more clear to people exactly what you need. $\endgroup$– 60levelchangeOct 22, 2016 at 8:42

Airport Diagrams such as this one of KPNE
are published here on the FAA website as well as in in the airport facilities directory. These are up to date and considered legal for navigation as far as I know. If you are looking for them in another type of format that may be tough, you can try reaching out to the specific airports or the FAA directly.

$\begingroup$ Well I asked the airport for it and they don't have one just the pdf format ! $\endgroup$ Jun 17, 2015 at 11:11
OpenStreetMap is a good place to start.
I've used it for a project with real aircraft data and found that the OSM map of the airport I was interested in had a small offset. Using JOSM I was able to correct for the offset and add missing taxiways and additional features.
I have also tried to use PDF based airport diagrams from various Aeronautical Information Publications (AIP) but I was not successful in extracting the specific elements I was interested in.

$\begingroup$ I saw the osm map and it seems correct not needing modifications I just have to change the colors of the map and it looks difficult! $\endgroup$ Jun 17, 2015 at 11:13

$\begingroup$ Can you explain what you are trying to achieve, what are you building? $\endgroup$– DeltaLima ♦Jun 17, 2015 at 12:34

$\begingroup$ I wanna simulate the traffic of aircraft on the aerodrome that's why I need the map so I can project the airplanes on . $\endgroup$ Jun 17, 2015 at 12:56
