The ATS unit providng providing service for an airspace is not part of the minimum AIP data set but required in ENR 2.1 ENR 2.1 FIR, UIR, TMA AND CTA:

Thus, it is considered conditional data.

In AIXM 5 does not provide a direct relationship between the Airspace and Unit feature. A Service is provided by a Unit. The Service of a certain type can then be related to an Airspace.

Service is an abstract feature which is specialised into the following classes:

  • AirTrafficManagementService
    A kind of service that provides flight planning and flow management operations.
  • SearchRescueService
    The performance of distress monitoring, communication, coordination and search and rescue functions, initial medical assistance or medical evacuation, through the use of public and private resources, including cooperating aircraft, vessels and other craft and installations.
  • InformationService
    A kind of service that consists in the provision of aeronautical, meteorological, traffic and related information to aircraft crew and other actors involved in flight operations, in flight or on the ground.
  • AirTrafficControlService
    A kind of service that provides control and separation services to aircraft in the air.

Altough Although the AIXM model allows it, AirTrafficManagementService shall not be used as ATS Unit provding providing service for airspace, as it is not a an ATS unit.

The Unit providing the Service carries a name attribute that shall be used for the identification.

For certain specialisations of services, a relationship to the concerned AirportHeliport can be defined. This is applicable for AD 2.17 Air traffic services airspaces.

The CallSignDetail class is used to provide information about the operational identifier, by which the provider of the service is called, i.e. the callSign and the language used.

For the language, the ISO 639

  shall be used. Note that in AIXM the language code is restricted to lower case and 3 characters.
