Published service category schemes

The current published service categories are at: https://reference.swim.aero/information-services/service-categories.html

Mature and can be published

No service category or value has this status at the moment.

Candidates for service category schemes

Potential service categoryNotes1

PANS-IM, ICAO information domains

This looks similar to https://reference.swim.aero/information-services/service-categories/CodeRegulatedInformationExchangeType.html but is different in purpose and in geographical applicability.

Aeronautical information

(AERONAUTICAL_INFORMATION)

Information resulting from the assembly, analysis and formatting of aeronautical data.

Meteorological information

(METEOROLOGICAL_INFORMATION)

Meteorological report, analysis, forecast, and any other statement relating to existing or expected meteorological conditions.

Environment information

(ENVIRONMENT_INFORMATION)

Capacity, demand and flow information

(CAPACITY_DEMAND_AND_FLOW_INFORMATION)

Surveillance information

(SURVEILLANCE_INFORMATION)

Other information

These schemes can then be used in a service description, service definition or service overview.

Document their use in the corresponding supporting material4

The schemes will be published in HTML format with a URL/URI.

Completed5

We will also look to publish the schemes in an ontology language such as RDF.

The schemes will be evolved using SSCONE as the discussion forum.

7ensure the MEP documents can use the categories. See https

to cover other lifecycle stages e.g. draft and experimental.

some values in different categories need to be logically explained

e.g. can you have a PROSPECTIVE SERVICE_DEFINITION or not? A matrix showing these sorts of business rules would be good to have.
