Scenario is work in progress.

Text NOTAM production rules

...

The following mapping shall be used for the Q code:

BL.navigationType

Corresponding Q codes

RNAV or TACAN (for all RouteSegments concerned by the Event)

QANLC

otherwise

QARLC

Scope

Insert the value ‘E’.

...

The following pattern should be used for automatically generating the E field text from the AIXM data:

Reference

Rule

(1)

If for each and everyone of the TD.RouteSegment that are concerned by the Event, during the times (considering an eventual schedule) and at the vertical levels covered by TD having TD.RouteAvailability=CLSD the BL.RouteAvailability.status=COND and BL.RouteAvailability(extension).eASM:conditionalRouteType=CDR1, then insert the text "CDR1". Otherwise insert the text "ATS"

(2)

Identify the route portions concerned and repeat steps from 3 to 5 for each route portion. To identify the route portions, order the RouteSegments associated with the Event:

  • first sort by the designatorPrefix, designatorSecondLetter, designatorNumber, multipleIdentifier of the Route that is referred to by the BL.routeFormed property;
  • second order by identical values of BL.start/EnRouteSegmentPoint.pointChoice or BL.end/EnRouteSegmentPoint.pointChoice with another segment of the same Route. Attention that it is possible to have two distinct portions of the same route associated with the Event.

(3)

Insert here the concatenated values of the designatorPrefix, designatorSecondLetter, designatorNumber, multipleIdentifier of the Route portion identified above.

(4)

Insert here the DesignatedPoint.designator or the Navaid.designator or the AirportHeliport.designator that was identified as start of a route portion at point (2) above. Note that this could be either the start or the end of a RouteSegment, as it is not guaranteed that the RouteSegments have been encoded in a regular P1-P2/P2-P3/P3-P4/... order. There could be situations where the segments have been encoded as P1-P2/P3-P2/P3-P4/etc.

(5)

Insert here the DesignatedPoint.designator or the Navaid.designator or the AirportHeliport.designator that was identified as end of a route portion at point (2) above. Note that this could be either the start or the end of a RouteSegment, as it is not guaranteed that the RouteSegments have been encoded in a regular P1-P2/P2-P3/P3-P4/... order. There could be situations where the segments have been encoded as P1-P2/P3-P2/P3-P4/etc.

(6)

If any TD.RouteAvailability/AirspaceLayer has either lowerLevel different from "FLOOR" or upperLevel different from "CEILING" (the segment is not completely closed on the vertical), then insert here each pair lowerLevel - upperLevel of one TD.RouteAvailability.AirspaceLayer having status="CLSD" that exists identically on all TD.RouteAvailability with status "CLSD" of the RouteSegments of the affected route portion, decoded as indicated below: 

Image Modified

If the value "FLOOR" is used as TD.RouteAvailability/AirspaceLayer.lowerLimit, then use the BL.lowerLimit, BL.lowerLimit@uom and BL.lowerLimitReference instead. If the value "CEILING" is used as TD.RouteAvailability/AirspaceLayer.upperLimit, then use the BL.upperLimit, BL.upperLimit@uom and BL.upperLimitReference instead. In all situations the values shall be formatted according to the decoding ruled for vertical limits.

(7)

Annotations shall be translated into free text according to the common rules for annotations decoding.

Note: The objective is to full automatic generation, without human intervention. However, the implementers of the specification might consider reducing the cost of a fully automated generation by allowing the operator to fine-tune the text in order to improve its readability (with the inherent risk for human error, when re-typing is allowed).

...

If a NOTAM C is produced, then the 4th and 5th letters (the "condition") of the Q code shall be "CN", except for the situation of a “new NOTAM to follow, in which case “XX”shall be used. and t 

The following pattern should be used for automatically generating the E field text from the AIXM data:

Reference

Rule

(8)

If the NOTAM will be followed by a new NOTAM concerning the same situation, then the operator shall have the possibility to specify "NEW NOTAM TO FOLLOW" and this text shall be appended at the end of item E of the NOTAM C.

Note: in this case, the 4th and 5th letters of the Q code shall also be changed into “XX”.
