Creating the digital landscape for AIS to AIM GE Aeronautical Information Management Services Annex 15: ICAOs requirements for data The role and importance of aeronautical data changed significantly with the implementation of area
Annex 15: ICAO’s requirements for data
“The role and importance
- f aeronautical data
changed significantly with the implementation of area navigation (RNAV), RNP and airborne computer- based navigation systems. Corrupt or erroneous aeronautical data can potentially affect the safety of air navigation.”
So what’s the problem?.......
Data collected over many years Exists in multiple forms and formats Transformed to digital by some but no regards for accuracy More digital data – expectations for maintaining increased No real effort related to accuracy to trace back to source When re-using data – quality is first and most important factor To determine quality – need to know origin
Brand new, built from scratch database DO-200A process, AIXM 5.x fomat highly accurate data
What’s the solution?.......
GE Aeronautical Information Management
States must update and integrate all info to a single, consistent data standard Ensure data connects NAS to form seamless integrated system of nav and airport data
Area 1 Terrain & Imagery Area 2 eTOD 2D & 3D AMDB
GE invests in the future
GE investing in very hi-res, high accuracy data sets that meet Annex 15 Area 2 eTOD
ICAO Area Definitions
New eTOD standards for all countries to achieve meet by 2015
Airport Maps and Area 2 eTOD
Electronic Terrain & Obstacle Data (eTOD)
ICAO Area 2 eTOD provides 3 meter vertical accuracy, 5 meter horizontal accuracy, sub meter resolution
Airport Mapping Database
Digital 2D & 3D AMDBs Optimize airport surface operations with a smart geospatial representation of the airport to enable gate-to-gate PBN-like surface operations.
