Air traffic management is defined as the "dynamic, integrated management of air traffic and airspace including air traffic services, airspace management and air traffic flow management - safely, economically and efficiently - through the provision of facilities and seamless services in collaboration with all parties and involving airborne and ground-based functions". 

Stakeholders operating in the global air traffic management system have the need for graphical representations of aeronautical data (i.e., maps). This facilitates the safe, economical and efficient execution of their duties both in planning and during operations. There is a need for aeronautical aerodrome maps in support of integrated digital briefings. The maps can be used to ensure a common situation awareness on which to notify changes e.g. in the availability of the aerodrome infrastructure.

The aeronautical aerodrome maps may also used in other systems such as those used for surface management at aerodrome. A list of these is available in Appendix C. This service satisfies these by offering aeronautical aerodrome maps as regulated by ICAO Annex 15 - Aeronautical Information Services.

However, the service is not intended for in-cockpit use.

The aeronautical aerodrome maps offered by the service satisfy the EU Implementing Regulation 2021/116 - Common Project One.

The service provides aeronautical aerodrome maps based on service consumer requests (for example, for a specified geographical area or based on a specific data layer).

There is a need for aeronautical aerodrome maps in support of integrated digital briefing applications (e.g. ePIB). Aerodrome maps can be used to ensure common situational awareness using them as backdrops in applications that display changes in the availability of the aerodrome infrastructure (e.g. Digital NOTAM overlay). Another example is the use of aerodrome maps in applications in support of aerodrome surface management.

A list of aerodrome map related operational needs is available in Appendix C.

The aeronautical aerodrome maps offered by the service satisfy the EU Implementing Regulation 2021/116 - Common Project One.

The service provides aeronautical aerodrome maps based on service consumer requests (for example, for a specified geographical area, based on a specific map layer or for a specific aerodrome).

Discover the layers that are availablecapabilities

Request aeronautical aerodrome map

Request map based on filtersaeronautical aerodrome map by geographic area

The service consumer shall be able to specify the temporality (current AIRAC or next AIRAC) select an individual aerodrome to be used when generating the map.

Note: The service shall support ICAO aerodrome location indicators as a minimum.

Request aeronautical aerodrome map by AIRAC cycle

The service consumer shall be able to specify the AIRAC cycle (current and next) of the aerodrome map request.

The service shall achieve a quality that is sufficient to ensure the service is fit for purpose.

The service shall achieve a quality that is sufficient to ensure the service is fit for purpose.

The service shall ensure confidentiality by using SWIM Technical Infrastructure (TI) Yellow Profile bindings.

The aeronautical aerodrome map offered by the service shall be based on aeronautical data received from the appropriate authorised originating sources, e.g.,. For example:

• AIRPORT_OPERATOR

GetMap

Request, Aeronautical Aerodrome Map

Aeronautical Aerodrome Map

This is the map that is generated on the server as a result of the GetMap query to the service.

It serves a baseline (as per the AIXM 5 temporality model).

Due care shall be taken to ensure the layers on the map are visible. For example, this may mean that GIS layers with a polygon geometry are below those with a a line geometry.

It may be styled and/or labelled according to a service layer description (SLD) and should ensure an uncluttered map.

It shall use EPSG:3857 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_Mercator_projection) as a minimum for its projection. The service consumer may specify another projection that is made available. Note that the projection does not alter the data. It still uses WGS-84 according Annex 15.

It is in graphical format e.g. GIF, JPEG, PNG, TIFF, etc. The desired output format may be included in the query to the service.

A queryable WMS allows access to the information on the map. The resulting information shall be based on the AIXM 5.1.1 exchange language.

Request

is in a graphical format supported by the OGC Web Map Service 1.3.0 Interface Standard. The desired output format may be included in the query to the service.

If the queryable WMS is implemented, it allows access to the information on the map. The resulting information shall be based on the AIXM 5.1.1 exchange language.

The Aeronautical Dataset Services constitute a family of services capable of providing, discovering and retrieving ICAO Annex 15 digital datasets.

The information offered by the Aeronautical Information Request Service is aligned with that found in the Aeronautical Dataset Services specification in order to ensure consistency between the two services.
