A3SG-IER-01 AIP Data Exchange

Abstract

This requirement describes the information exchanged by an AISP in order to support the dissemination of information related to AIP (including SUP) publication.

Actors 

The following actors are involved in this information exchange:

  • The Information Provider is the AISP
  • The Information Consumer is the ANSP or and AU (as named by SDP) but potentially any other user including other AISPs as well as Civil and Military stakeholders. 

Purpose 

This exchange address the need to disseminate information relative to the AIP and SUP publications.

Information 

The information exchanged relates to AIP and SUP publications expressed as aeronautical information features.

The specific list of AIP features aligns with those identified as part of the "ICAO AIP Data Set" as defined in the allocation of various AIXM features to the Digital ICAO Data Set categories

Interaction 

The information is expected to be exchanged between the identified stakeholders taking into account the following interaction characteristics:

  • The information exchange may enable filtering
    • by feature type and name. 
    • based on spatial, temporal and logical operators.
  • Information Exchange Frequency relates to the AIRAC 

Non Functional Requirements

There is no non functional requirement identified.

Constraints 

This exchange of information is constraint to be performed as follows: 

  • Based on AIXM 5.1
