AIXM 5 Model Overview
The main class in this AIXM model is the Airspace containing the basic data, such as the name and type of the airspace.
The airspace class is encoded using the AIrspaceLayer object. An airspace class may be defined for the whole airspace or layers of it.
The AirspaceVolume is used to encode the vertical limits of an airspace.
AIXM 5 provides several possibilities to encode the lateral limits of an airspace
Furthermore, within an airspace an ATS unit may provide a service on one or more particular radio communication channel (frequency).
Airspaces and also the service provided by the ATS unit may have certain schedules.
For Special Activity Airspaces also information about the existing type of restriction or nature of hazard, activation process and/or time of activity may be provided.
