ESSIP Plan 2014 / Objective INF07

3. ESSIP Plan 2014 / Overview LSSIP 2013
Explanation (1)
ICAO Annex 15, Aeronautical Information Services, requires the States to provide Electronic Terrain and Obstacle Data (TOD) for their own territory and to announce it in the national AIPs.
The ESSIP objective has been introduced in order to aid the States in establishing a robust framework that will ensure the timely provision of TOD as required by ICAO.
This ESSIP objective is aimed at ensuring that all States of the ECAC area provide the required TOD as soon as possible in line with ICAO Annex 15.
The operational capability dates indicated in this objective are not meant to replace, amend or modify in any way the deadline required by Annex 15 to implement TOD.

Explanation (2)
TOD is sub-divided into four areas:
Area 1 - the entire territory of a State
Area 2 - the terminal control area
Area 3 - aerodromes/heliport area
Area 4 - CAT II or CAT III operation area.
States have to assess the existing national regulations and policies, including the safeguarding of aerodromes and obstacle and allocate responsibilities.
States need to create capabilities for the origination, collection, exchange, management and distribution of the digital terrain and obstacle information in the form of digital datasets:
This implies the establishment of efficient and reliable processes (e.g. data acquisition, cross-border provision, data validation and verification, data maintenance, data storage, data transmission, and oversight, etc.) to ensure the provision of up-to-date data.
Comply with the requirements of EU Regulation 73/2010 on the quality of aeronautical data and aeronautical information.

INF07-ASP01 Plan the required activities for the collection, management and provision of TOD in accordance with national TOD policy. 
INF07-ASP02 Implement the collection, management and provision of TOD in accordance with the national TOD policy and regulatory framework.
INF07-APO01 Plan the required activities for the collection, management and provision of TOD in accordance with national TOD policy.
INF07-APO02 Implement the collection, management and provision of TOD in accordance with the national TOD policy and regulatory framework

9. Finalisation Criteria
INF07-ASP01 and APO01 - The availability of a plan/roadmap by the ANSP and the airport operator demonstrating the feasibility of implementation of TOD as defined by the national TOD policy in line with the national TOD implementation programme.
INF07-ASP02 and APO02 - The requirements defined in the national TOD policy and regulatory framework for ANSP and airport operators are fulfilled in accordance with the national TOD implementation programme.
IMPORTANT NOTE: REG 02 refers to, amongst others, the following action:
“Include and maintain in the EUR ANP/FASID (AIM part) the list of aerodromes where area 2, 3 and 4 TOD would be provided”
However the document that it refers (EUR ANP/FASID) has not yet been approved by ICAO and may, in accordance with decisions taken after the approval of the ESSIP Plan, be replaced by other document. Therefore this particular action shall not be taken into account in the current LSSIP year 2014 cycle.
