PDF is another popular format, but the download time negates a quick lookup when you're rushing to make that connection!

Its primary purpose is to make it more convenient and less stressful to get your bearings in case of a late gate change.

Those airports not included either didn't have detailed enough gate information or were only available from commercial sites, prohibiting use of their maps. New maps will be added monthly by your popular requests on the site's project page, and will be free updates to the full version.
