Description
An attribute for RF leg radius is added to the SegmentLeg class.
Rationale for change
See https://aixmccb.atlassian.net/browse/AIXM-489
Current model is missing a possibility to indicate leg radius in support of SegmentLeg.legTypeARINC=’RF’ (Radius to Fix), for which this element is required in order to align with ARINC 424.
This requires adding a separate attribute “radius'' to the SegmentLeg class.
Impact assessment
There is no impact on existing implementations as the current AIXM 5.1.(.1) data remains fully valid against AIXM 5.2. No values are removed from this list. When receiving data from AIXM 5.2 implementations, current AIXM 5.1(.1) systems will be able to map back the new values, as described in the mapping rules further in this document.
Change Proposal details
In the UML model:
- In the SegmentLeg class add the following attribute:
- radius, type = ValDistanceType, definition = “Radius of the turning segment.”.
The following UML class diagram indicates the new attribute. Other approved changes in the list of SegmentLeg attributes are also shown in this diagram, for completeness sake:
Mapping AIXM 5.1.1 to AIXM 5.2 (forward)
The following algorithm shall be applied:
Not applicable
Mapping AIXM 5.2 to AIXM 5.1.1 (backward)
[MAPC-02] For each SegmentLeg class and it’s specialised subclasses: ArrivalFeederLeg, FinalLeg, InitialLeg , IntermediateLeg, MissedApproachLeg, ArrivalLeg, DepartureLeg that have radius from the three backward mapping options applicable in this case, the first two (discard the value or use an extension) are straightforward and do not need any further details. The 3rd option (backward mapping into a Note) is detailed in order to provide a complete description of this case and its conversion option.
The following mapping into Note algorithm is proposed:
- Remove the radius element
- Add an annotation.Note associated with the owner class or subclass having
- purpose=“OTHER:BACKWARD_MAPPING”;
- LinguisticNote.note=”radius: <value of radius> <uom of radius>
