From the README

ICAO is an interactive program running under X11/Motif. Its input is a so
called "world file", which is an ASCII file containing descriptions of objects
such as airports, roads, towns, radio beacons and the like. ICAO will use
either Lambert or Mercator projection to generate a map from this world file,
either on your screen or as PostScript output.

ICAO allows you to interactively work with the map on the screen, i.e. scroll
it, use a rubber line to measure distances and tracks etc. Additional features
are available for both motorized flights and soaring.

Version 0.60b (the 'b' meaning beta) is the first version released.

The supplied world file highlights a part of a map of Germany.
