This was raised in the context of datasets but is applicable to information service payloads in general and, e.g. tools like semantic NOTAM in particular. At the moment the packages are not published but should be. An AIRM change request has been raised.

experimental8More refined ATM Capability list

The EATMA Service Overview organises the services by ATM Capability.

The first level is reflected in CodeBusinessActivityType. It is possible to add more levels from the ATM Capability Model. The table below includes the second level. Definitions are taken from https://www.eatmportal.eu/working/data/capabilities.

Service CategoryValueDefinition

Aerodrome Operations

  • Information from/to Airport Landside Operations
The provision of information to/or reception of information from airport landside with which airport airside interacts.
  • Airport Situational Awareness Provision
The ability to know about the current state of airport facilities, traffic situation (vehicles, aircraft) and events at airport, and anticipate future changes and developments that may impact on aerodrome ATM operations.
  • Surface Guidance & Routing
The ability to provide guidance and routing to aircraft and other vehicles moving on the surface of an aerodrome.

Airspace Organisation and Management

  • Airspace Design
The ability to design airspace structures to accommodate the different types of air activity, volume of traffic, and differing levels of service and rules of conduct.
  • Airspace Management
The ability to maximise the use of a volume of airspace against the differing demands of users.

Airspace User Operations

  • Flight Prioritisation
The ability to determine and allocate priorities in which flights will be handled by the ATC system.
  • Execute Trajectory
The ability to execute Trajectory from TTA at origin or entry into ECAC Airspace to On Blocks at airport or exit from ECAC airspace.

Conflict Management

  • Separation Management
Separation of Airborne Aircraft from other Aircraft, Airspace Infringements, Weather, Terrain.
  • Collision Avoidance
The avoidance of collisions due to loss of separation of aircraft

CNS

  • CNS Resource/Asset Management
The ability to make CNS assets/resources available in support of the ATM network, ensure scarce resources are equitably shared among stakeholders, and rationalise / optimise infrastructure (e.g. number of assets) and/or its usage when network performance is at stake.
  • CNS Infrastructure Performance Management
The ability to monitor and report on the performance of CNS infrastructure.
  • CNS Integration
The ability to combine and integrate Communication/Navigation/Surveillance techniques to deliver performance-based CNS services with required availability, integrity, safety, security requirements.
  • Communication

  • Navigation
-
  • Surveillance

Demand and Capacity Balancing

  • Demand and Capacity Balancing (airport)
The ability to evaluate airport demand and adjust airport assets to allow airspace users to meet the needs of their operating schedules.
  • Demand and Capacity Balancing (airspace)
The ability to evaluate traffic flows and adjust airspace resources to allow airspace users to meet the needs of their operating schedules.

Information Management

  • Aeronautical and Meteorological Information Management
The ability to provide accredited, quality assured and timely aeronautical information in support of ATM operations.
  • Information Infrastructure Management
The ability to provide an information infrastructure (incl. support/utility services) which enables information exchanges through services.
  • Information to/from Other Essential Services
The provision of information to, or reception of information from other essential activities with which the ATM system interacts (e.g. search and rescue).
  • ATM Data Management
The ability to provide accredited, quality assured and timely aeronautical information in support of ATM operations.

Service Delivery Management

  • ATM Service Management
The ability for all parties to collaborate and agree a flight trajectory based upon the users wishes, constraints and opportunities, and to manage conformance to trajectory agreement.
  • Trajectory Management
The ability for all parties to collaborate and agree a flight trajectory based upon the users wishes, constraints and opportunities, and to manage conformance to trajectory agreement.
  • ATC Team Resource Management
The ability to set ATM performance requirements, and measure/monitor performance outcomes.

Traffic Synchronisation

  • Sequencing & Merging
The ability to sequence and merge traffic.

DRAFT

The status indicating that the service is...

EXPERIMENTAL

The status indicating that the service uses new ideas or methods, and might be modified later if it is unsuccessful. It is made available in order to be assessed for future development.
