2. Who are you? Operating the flights Uses AIDX key Airline Manages arrivals, departures Perhaps cut-down AIDX key Airport Aircraft in flight Uses call signs vs. flight ID ATM 2

3. 3 Airport Airline Three Axes of Flight Data

4. To Achieve S-CDM FAA Concept of Operations: A Simple, Low-Risk Approach with a Foundation in Data Collaboration Data Exchange and Integration Basic Surface Surveillance Procedures, Roles and Responsibilities Queue Management Link Surface & Airside Ops Surface Flow Management FAA Surface Operations Office and ‘Surface CDM’ – ACI Operations and Technical Affairs Conference (April 18, 2012) Lorne Cass - Manager, Industry Affairs, Surface Operations Office 4

5. So Are We There Yet? Not quite. Vendors have strong, valid, functional systems Respect SSIM messaging But can Vendor A and Vendor B always ID this flight? 5

6. Today’s scenarios Mostly correct during regular ops Is margin of error during irregular ops We use any means available to identify “that aircraft over there”. – Binoculars, telephone, radio, tribal knowledge, maybe even Twitter, text or cell phone 6

7. Today’s scenarios Most schedules use SSIM identifier Is not universal AIDX is recommended practice and key for commercial and general aviation FIXM and AIDX building alignment – Will WXXM and AIXM align as well? 7

8. Where are we Heading? How will we assure our data align? And align to what? Who governs data among the “Three Axes”? Who will govern or certify the vendors? – ICAO? IATA? ACI? 8

9. If we Craft a GUFI GUFI has to align to something unique – In each axes’ schemas – In each vendor’s system – Throughout the flight cycle So all the flight pieces fit together 9
