Operational Environment

operational environment

operational needs

Air traffic management is defined by ICAO as the "dynamic, integrated management of air traffic and airspace including air traffic services, airspace management and air traffic flow management - safely, economically and efficiently - through the provision of facilities and seamless services in collaboration with all parties and involving airborne and ground-based functions".

Air traffic management needs high quality aeronautical data in order to operate. Data is required concerning the actual and future infrastructure to be used by air traffic such as aerodromes, airspaces, navigation aids and ATS routes.

The aeronautical data is also used in systems such as those used for surface management at aerodromes.

A list of operational needs that this service contributes to satisfying is available in Appendix C. This service satisfies these by offering aeronautical data as regulated by ICAO Annex 15 - Aeronautical Information Services.

The scope of the aeronautical data satisfies the EU Implementing Regulation 2021/116 - Common Project One.

capabilities

The service provides high quality, up-to-date, trusted, regulated aeronautical data in digital form (features) for use in air traffic management systems and other systems. The data supports operational needs throughout the phases of flight (strategic, pre-tactical and tactical).

Appendix B: Information Definition for Aeronautical Information Request Service

The table below lists the AIXM 5.1.1 features that are needed to support the scope of the Aeronautical Information Request Service. It is aligned with the Aeronautical Dataset Services Specification.

The features can be regarded as 'root' features. The method for exchanging the linked features is an implementation decision. For example, the message may be self-contained and contain all of the linked features. However, it is also possible to query the service for the linked features.

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.
