Publication format
Excel file (deprecated)
The reference set of AIXM 5.1 Business Rules is made available in the form of an Excel file, that contains both the SBVR formulation and, where available, the Schematron encoding of the rule. This Excel file is available here: www.aixm.aero/page/business-rules.
XML file (new)
Three files have to be considered together:
- AIXM-BR-SBVR.xml = new export file
- AIXM-BR-SBVR.XSD = static file, used to validate the new export file, can be downloaded here
- AIXM-BR-SBVR.xsl = static file, used to transform the new export file, can be downloaded here
Clicking on the XML button of the AIXM BRM web application allows exporting rules into an XML file:
Publication format
Starting with version 0.8, the AIXM Business Rules are provided in two formats:
- as an XML file, which preserves the information about "templates" - used in the definition of the majority of the rules. The XML format is intended to be used for automating the development of data validation services, which could generate code directly from the SBVR structured rules and templates
as an Excel file, which is created by converting the original XML file into HTML and then importing it into Excel. The purpose of the Excel file is to facilitate the transition, as the previous versions have been published only in Excel format. Also, the Excel format is more convenient for human used, as it allows sorting and filtering of the rules.

In case of discrepancies between the XML and the Excel version, the XML version should be considered as the authoritative version. |
XML file
The new XML export structure follows the schema defined in the AIXM-BR-SBVR.XSD file, which matches with the following structure:

Three files have to be considered together:
- AIXM-BR-SBVR.xml = new export file
- AIXM-BR-SBVR.XSD = static file, used to validate the new export file, can be downloaded here
- AIXM-BR-SBVR.xsl = static file, used to transform the new export file, can be downloaded here
The XSL stylesheet is used to convert the AIXM-BR-SBVR.xml export file into a single HTML table, where templates are instantiated.
...
This profile will contain a selection of AIXM features and business rules that can be used in order to verify the correctness and completeness of Digital NOTAM data sets. This shall be included in the Digital NOTAM Event Specification (starting with version 2.0).
Event_FAA profile
This profile will contain rules that are specific to the Digital NOTAM encoding scenarios of FAA (FNS-NDS) system. Such rules refer to an FAA scenario number.
