Aeronautical Data Set Services
Introduction
ICAO Annex 15 16th Edition and the new PANS-AIM (ICAO Doc 10066) require that:
"5.1.1 Aeronautical information shall be provided in the form of aeronautical information products and associated services."
The aeronautical information products include both the standardised presentation documents/messages (AIP, AIP AMDT, AIP SUP, AIC, aeronautical charts, NOTAM) and digital data sets. A general recommendation is made in the Annex 15 that:
"5.4.1.3 Recommendation.— Global communication networks such as the Internet should, whenever practicable, be employed for the provision of aeronautical information products."
PANS-AIM indicates that "Further guidance on digital data set distribution can be found in the Manual on System-wide Information Management (SWIM) Concept (Doc 10039)." While the current Doc 10039 – Manual on SWIM Concept - and its envisaged update, will in principle not contain domain specific guidance such as for the provision of digital aeronautical dataset services, it is expected to contain guidance on the so called transversal requirements (common to all domains) on SWIM information services. The requirements are expected to be provided per the envisaged PANS-IM Vol 1 SWIM.
Purpose and scope
The purpose of this project is to:
- encourage harmonized implementations, in order to save cost and accelerate the deployment of the digital data sets.
- propose /wiki/spaces/ASW/pages/60031022 (and accompanying Aeronautical Data Set Information Definition) for a suite of Aeronautical Data Set services that support aeronautical digital data sets.
- validate the service definitions through test Example Implementations, such as a prototype using fictitious and sample AIS digital data sets.
