The properties of the Special activities airspace subject listed in PANS-AIM are mapped to the following main AIXM 5 features:
Besides the minimum AIP data set items listed in PANS-AIM chapter 5.3.3.1.1, additional data items specified in the following sections of Appendix 2 of PANS-AIM - which are marked with #AIP-DS# - are taken into consideration for the mapping:
- ENR 5.1 Prohibited, restricted and danger areas
ENR 5.2 Military exercise and training areas and air defence identification zone (ADIZ)
- ENR 5.3.1 Other activities of a dangerous nature
- ENR 5.5 Aerial sporting and recreational activities
Info
"ENR 5.3.2 Other potential hazards" & "ENR 5.6 Bird migration and areas with sensitive fauna" are not marked as #AIP-DS# in the PANS-AIM.
PANS-AIM | Description (PANS-AIM) | AIXM 5 | Remarks |
---|---|---|---|
Type | Type of special activity airspace Note 1 type: Prohibited Area, Restricted Area, Danger Area, Military Execise Area, Military Training Area, Air Defence Identification Zone (ADIZ), Other | //aixm:Airspace//aixm:type | For military airspaces controlType is included in the mapping. In general AIXM does not provide dedicated values for military types of airspaces (e.g. Military Training Area). Such airspaces are encoded as civil type with the corresponding controlType. |
Identification | The identification assigned to uniquely identify the airspace | //aixm:Airspace//aixm:designator | |
Name | The name given to the airspace by a responsible authority | //aixm:Airspace//aixm:name | |
Lateral limits | The surface defining the horizontal shape of the airspace | //aixm:Airspace//aixm:geometryComponent//aixm:AirspaceVolume/aixm:horizontalProjection | For more information see Geometry (Overview). |
Vertical limits - Upper limit | The upper limit of the airspace | //aixm:Airspace//aixm:geometryComponent//aixm:AirspaceVolume/aixm:upperLimit | |
Vertical limits - Lower limit | The lower limit of the airspace | //aixm:Airspace//aixm:geometryComponent//aixm:AirspaceVolume/aixm:lowerLimit | |
Restriction | Type of restriction or nature of hazard | //aixm:Airspace//aixm:activation/aixm:AirspaceActivation/aixm:activity | In addtion AirspaceLayer and AircraftCharacteristic may be used to define the type of restriction in more detail. |
Activation | Information on system and means of activation announcements together with information pertinent to civil flights and applicable ADIZ procedures; | //aixm:Airspace//aixm:annotation/aixm:Note/aixm:propertyName="activation" | For more information see Note (Overview). |
Time of activity | Time interval when the special activity takes place | //aixm:Airspace//aixm:activation/aixm:AirspaceActivation/aixm:timeInterval | For more information see Schedule (Overview). |
Risk of interception | Risk of interception in the event of penetration | //aixm:RulesProcedures//aixm:affectedArea | Only required for Airsapce/type = "ADIZ" |
