Task Status

This page is part of the ongoing SWIM Community of Interest discussions. The content is working material. It should not be treated as final as it is still subject to review, comment and change.

This page records the discussion on the high level description of the service offer. It focuses on understanding:

operational needs that the service contributes towards;
capabilities offered by the service;
functions used to realise the capabilities.

Operational Needs

Transversal

Collaborative information sharing is essential for decision making involving multiple actors. Automatic taxi with time and path information on the ground, collaborative decision making during emergencies, de-icing operations and infrastructure availability information are examples that involve multiple actors including the aircraft crew.

By service consumer role

Stakeholder/Role	Description of stakeholder/role	Needs for Aeronautical Features	Needs for DNOTAM	Needs for Aerodrome Maps	Notes
CIVIL_AIRSPACE_USER	A generic term designating an organization operating aircraft and its pilots, the flight operations centres (FOC) responsible for the strategic planning of a flight and the entity responsible for the execution of a flight which is traditionally a flight deck.	Retrieve baseline data and updates to it for a point in time in order to perform safe, economical and efficient operations. Generate graphical representations of data in support of responsibilities. Visual support to pilots under the form of digital charts and cockpit displays. Airline engineering and operations departments may import and export obstacle data for use in their applications. Safety nets. Monitor aircraft for hazardous conditions.	Retrieve dynamic data to support digital integrated briefing concepts. Ensure safe operations by responding to changes in the situation. Provide in-flight information updates.	Generate graphical representations needed to support digital briefing concepts. Have an up-to-date backdrop for dynamic layers (see SDP).	Aircraft covers UAV. However, it might be good to have a dedicated role UAV_USER.
MILITARY_AIRSPACE_USER	Airspace User under the authority of a military organisation.	Retrieve baseline data and updates to it for a point in time in order to perform safe, economical and efficient operations. Generate graphical representations of data in support of responsibilities. Visual support to pilots under the form of digital charts and cockpit displays. Airline engineering and operations departments may import and export obstacle data for use in their applications. Safety nets. Monitor aircraft for hazardous conditions.	Retrieve dynamic data to support digital integrated briefing concepts. Ensure safe operations by responding to changes in the situation. Provide in-flight information updates.	Generate digital representation of ground operations Generate graphical representations needed to support digital briefing concepts. Have an up-to-date backdrop for dynamic layers (see SDP).	There is an assumption that these will be working in DMZ under yellow profile. The AISP needs to meet the security needs. In general, they have the same needs as civil airspace users.
CIVIL_AIR_NAVIGATION_SERVICE_PROVIDER	Any public or private entity providing air navigation services for general air traffic.	Remote tower systems use different layers of visualisation to highlight movement areas, buildings, etc. for air traffic controllers. AMD data can be used to create more accurate restricted zones for geofencing around aerodromes.	Ensure safe operations by responding to changes in the status of the infrastructure	Remote tower systems use different layers of visualization to highlight movement areas, buildings, etc. for air traffic controllers. AMD data can be used to create more accurate restricted zones for geofencing around aerodromes.
MILITARY_AIR_NAVIGATION_SERVICE_PROVIDER	Any public or private entity providing air navigation services for military air traffic.	Remote tower systems use different layers of visualisation to highlight movement areas, buildings, etc. for air traffic controllers. AMD data can be used to create more accurate restricted zones for geofencing around aerodromes.	Ensure safe operations by responding to changes in the status of the infrastructure	Remote tower systems use different layers of visualization to highlight movement areas, buildings, etc. for air traffic controllers. AMD data can be used to create more accurate restricted zones for geofencing around aerodromes.
AIR_TRAFFIC_SERVICE_PROVIDER	A generic term meaning variously, flight information service, alerting service, air traffic advisory service, air traffic control service (area control service, approach control service or aerodrome control service).	Create ARES based on airspace data. Generate and validate flight plans. Create AUPs. Update FDPS - flight data processing systems.		Generate digital representation of ground operations
REGULATED_METEOROLOGICAL_SERVICE_PROVIDER	An office designated to provide meteorological service for international air navigation.				No needs have been identified.
AERONAUTICAL_INFORMATION_SERVICE_PROVIDER	A service established within the defined area of coverage responsible for the provision of aeronautical information/data necessary for the safety, regularity and efficiency of air navigation.	Use another AISP's features for referencing cross border data.
COMMUNICATION_NAVIGATION_AND_ SURVEILLANCE_SERVICE_PROVIDER	A provider of CNS services.	Coverage e.g. FIR boundaries.			Example: DEMETER project
PROVIDER_OF_DATA_SERVICES	A public or private entity responsible for the management of a Data Service Provision (e.g. to one or several Virtual Centre).	Create flight manuals, data tapes for FMS. Use local actual and forecasted status of the infrastructure	Update EFB - electronic flight bags	Update EFB - electronic flight bags
NETWORK_MANAGER	The organization responsible for enabling the optimum use of airspace and ensure that Airspace Users can operate preferred trajectories while allowing maximum access to airspaces and air navigation services.	may use the service in the context of: IFPS, ATFM, ATFCM ARES, flight plans, AUPs.	Create measures - in tactical phase Execute ATFM, ATFCM in tactical phases
AIRPORT_OPERATOR	The civilian or military agency, group or individual which exercises control over the operations of the civil airport or military airfield.	Update AIS on infrastructure changes Manage ground lighting Mange movement area management Surface contamination management and inspection Local flight briefing/preparation tools (eg in ARO context) Airport capacity management	Surface contamination management and inspection - SNOWTAM, ASHTAM Submit NOTAM proposals Receive NOTAM after AIS processing Local flight briefing/preparation tools (eg in ARO context) Airport capacity management	Improved common situational awareness Ensure same digital representation of reality e.g. in low visibility operations (LVO) Local flight briefing/preparation tools (eg in ARO context) Airport capacity management
AIRSIDE_GROUND_HANDLER	A stakeholder involved in the services necessary for an aircraft's arrival at, and departure from, an airport, other than air traffic services.				No needs have been identified.
MILITARY_DEFENCE_CENTRE	A military defence centre. Note: these centres, e.g., check for diplomatic clearance.	Know airspace boundaries, etc.
