The horizontal shape of the sectors is described by closed polygons; in the situations when the horizontal shape of the sectors is defined by curves segments these can be approximated by linear segments (as for the routes).

In the situations where the sector has a complex vertical shape it is necessary to "decompose" it in basic geometric blocks (dummy airspace blocks) which will be linked together for analysis purposes.

After the modelling is complete, the designer should check that the sector configuration is depicted correctly and that are no "gaps" between the sectors at their common boundaries (in the horizontal and the vertical planes).
