Why ADQ... Introduction The European Organization for the Safety of Air Navigation (EUROCONTROL) was mandated to develop an interoperability Implementing Rule (IR) that supplements and strengthens the requirements of the International Civil Aviation Organization's (ICAO) Annex 15, in order to achieve aeronautical data and information of sufficient quality to support current and future flight operations. 4
ADQ is... Introduction European Regulation 73/2010 (Compliance dates 2013-2017) Laying down requirements on the quality of aeronautical data and information Key enabler of the European Air Traffic Management Network (EATMN) and Single European Sky 5
ADQ Key Provisions Introduction QUALITY INTEROPERABILITY AND PERFORMANCE CONFORMITY ASSESSMENT 6
ADQ Stakeholders Introduction Applicable to all the actors interacting with aeronautical data from data originators to publications: Surveyors Procedure Designers Aerodrome Authorities Air Navigation Services Aeronautical Information Services Civil Aviation Authorities Industries (System providers) 7
Introduction ADQ-2 Objective: develop a draft SES interoperability implementing rule to achieve aeronautical information of sufficient quality in the aeronautical data chain from post-publication by the AIS provider to the end-user. Purpose: Provide the data quality required to enable current and future concepts such as Performance Based Navigation (PBN) Apply common quality measures throughout the data supply chain Output: Proposals are currently being drafted. 8

Planning extensions PLX is the solution proposed by IDS to assess the AIM Data Process Management. PLX is designed to fit requirements coming from international regulation and standards, such as: RTCA 200A Eurocontrol - ADQ, CHAIN, SDP ICAO Annex 15, Doc 8126 (AIS Manual) Web Application supporting the execution of the Whole AIS data process: Data Collecting: Interface for Internal\External Originators of Aeronautical Data Process Management Process Definition (WMS\TMS) Process Execution (Full integration with AIM Solution) Process Tracking and Auditing Data Distribution Allows to distribute data via web, both in tabular and geographical format (Web GIS WMS/WFS) 57
Airspace Designer AD is the solution proposed by IDS to design and maintain bounded airspaces and routes according to ICAO annex 11 and doc. 8168 AD is fully capable of performing vertical and horizontal separation between routes/airspaces, routes/routes and airspaces/airspaces: Fully configurable buffers (horizontal and vertical planes) Separation analysis done by airspaces structures types (P R D only, ATS only, etc..) Airspaces geometries data storage Special Use Airpaces (SUA) capabilities (corridors, sectors, etc...) Usage management and Flexible Use of Airspaces (FUA) Collaborative Design (CDM) capabilities The definition of airspaces is typically done by designers by experience using different and not fully operable systems. AD allows: Data loading: Load data from the central AIS or from external databases Assess and tracking etod assessment Volumes analysis (airspaces and routes) with configurable buffers MEA/MEL, MOCA, lower/ upper limit calculation and tracking Data Distribution Automatic AIP look-like reports Data storage in AIXM4.5 and 5.1 databases 58
etod Suite etod is the key factor for a real data quality checks to comply with ICAO annex 15 and doc 9881 etod is fully capable of validating obstacle/terrain data by: Merging human made obstacles data and compare them with the terrain information Import several terrain formats withouit any manual entry Import several (also user defined) human made obstacle formats) based on ASCII and xml Check Annex 15 requirements Export the obstacle data in different formats (aixm; 5.1, CSV, etc) Storage in a dedicated database or in the central AIS database The data collection and validation is the first step toward a complete ADQ implementation. etod allows: Data loading: Import in a controlled way obstacles and airport data and validate with terrain information and annex 15 requirements assessment Annex 4 and 14 surfaces geometries data storage Penetrating obstacle /terrain data storage Data Distribution AIXM 5.1 output, data sorage in central database 59
EMACS EMACS is the solution proposed by IDS to evaluate the performances of all the navigation aids and to prevalidate (ground validation) flight procedure and/or airspaces. EMACS is fully capable of performing the following operational evaluations: BRA (Building Restricted Areas) evaluation according to the ICAO EUR Doc 015 Generation of navigation aids coverage volumes Generation of usability volumes (limitations) by evaluating multipath effecting the navaids themselves (obstacle assessement) Distribution of the coverage/usability volumes to the designers by storing the information into the AIXM 5.1 Database Validation of the navaids signal in space and evaluation of the obstacle vs antenna safeguarding areas is typically done using different and not fully operable systems. EMACS allows: Data loading: Load data from the central AIS or from external databases Obstacle safeguarding and Radiolectric coverage evaluation Building Restricted Areas evaluation Volumes analysis (navigation aids coverage evaluation at several FL) Navaids Coverage Volume (navaids limitations included) generation Data Distribution Data storage in AIXM 5.1 databases 60
