AIXM 3.1 (Oct 2002) <!-- The location of the Vor is changed, thus a change in the unique identifier Therefore the old unique identifier is mentioned first--> BXL 514333.34N 0032301.21E BXL 514326.67N 0032345.37E BELGIUM BRUSSELS VOR DVOR 119.00 MHZ MAG WGE H24 <!-- The location of the Vor is changed, thus a change in the unique identifier Therefore the old unique identifier is mentioned first--> BXL 514333.34N 0032301.21E BXL 514326.67N 0032345.37E BELGIUM BRUSSELS VOR DVOR 119.00 MHZ MAG WGE H24

5. Content AIXM Versions in use Progress areas since ATIEC 2012 Future versions Global coordination

6. Published: 2005 – Entity/Relationship – Custom XML schema – Core AIP data Use: – European AIS Database (EAD) and European national systems – Estimated 20+ national systems world-wide… Versions in use - AIXM 4.5

7. Published: MAR 2008 UML Model GML Schema Full AIP/NOTAM data – Including obstacle, airport mapping, etc. Metadata Extensibility Use: – Partially, by FAA and NGA Versions in use - AIXM 5.0

8. Published: FEB 2010 Update of AIXM 5.0 – Usage/availability model – Notes vs. descriptions – Other adjustments to facilitate Digital NOTAM encoding Use – good news, see next slide ! Current version – AIXM 5.1

10. Tools for AIXM 5.1 data visualisation

11. Coding/usage guidelines AIXM Temporality Concept (FEB 2010) Feature Identification and Reference (APR 2011) OGC Aviation Domain Working Group – Metadata Guidelines for Aviation Data (MAR 2011) – Use of GML for Aviation Data (MAY 2012) OGC test beds – WFS/FES Temporality Extension (Engineering Report) Digital NOTAM – version 1.0 - JUN 2011 – version 2.0 – in preparation for publication Work in progress – Obstacle data – SID/STAR/Approach Procedures… – Business rules

12. AIXM 4.5 Conversion Guidelines – See www.aixm.aero/wiki -> Mappings, version 1.1www.aixm.aero/wiki – Status: Released – Including feedback from EAD mapping AIXM 5.1 Mappings - updates

13. Airport Mapping Requirements – See www.aixm.aero/wiki -> Mappingswww.aixm.aero/wiki – ED 99/DO 272 (A/B/C) into AIXM 5.1 – Version 0.7 based on feed-back from FAA and AeroNavData Includes an AIXM 5.1-AMDB extension AIXM 5.1 Mappings - updates

14. Coding/usage guidelines XHTML profile/guidelines for AIXM ?

15. Digital NOTAM Event Specification – version 2.0 in preparation Other Event (any other situation that does not have a dedicated scenario) Taxiway lights unserviceable Surface contamination (SNOWTAM) Visual Approach slope indicator unserviceable Taxiway closure Obstacle lights unserviceable New obstacle Runway lights unserviceable Navaid unserviceable Approach lights downgraded Runway closure Approach lights unserviceable Aerodrome closure Taxiway usage limitation Route portion opening Runway usage limitation Route portion closure Airport Usage limitation Ad-hoc ATS airspace – creation Runway portion closure Ad-hoc special activity area – creation Declared distances changes Published ATS airspace - activation or deactivation Displaced threshold Published special activity area – activation Increment 2 scenarios Increment 1 scenarios

16. FAA Digital NOTAM Beta Testing

17. Business Rules Prevent – doubtful data (from a business point of view) – syntactical flaws, such as Baseline with TimeInstant, missing srsName, etc. In general, give confidence to the recipient that the data is fit for purpose! – Critical for Digital NOTAM applications! Work in progress – Focus on Airspace – Use of SBVR Standard – Small focus group, will become public by end September

18. OGC test beds (OWS-9) Links page on www.aixm.aerowww.aixm.aero Industry developments

19. ICAO Adoption Annex 15 AMDT 37 AIXM as means of compliance – More details in AIS Manual (DOC 8126) and later possibly in a PANS-AIM

20. Future versions Need to protect investments Desire to progress

21. Future versions ATIEC 2012 Too early…. Now planned : Q1 2014Intended : 2015

22. AIXM CCB Currently 30 issues recorded – 14 Bugs – 14 Possible enhancements – 2 possible new features Ad-hoc face-to-face meeting on Monday, 26 August AIXM 5.1.1 – Migration to EA (Sparx) – Minor corrections only: spelling errors, schema bugs, UML/XML discrepancies, lists of values – Definitions improvements

23. WXXM Coordination AvXML 1.0 RC-2 – Simple Aeronautical Feature (SAF) model

24. FIXM coordination AIXM provides the “infrastructure” part

26. Conclusions Conceptual/logical model level – Coherence AIXM/FIXM is a key issue (through a global AIRM) – SID/STAR/IAP (including procedure design) model, free flight airspace, flight restrictions are model areas expected to require some refreshment in AIXM 5.2 Work in progress (high priority topics) for 2013-2014 – business rules – digital NOTAM encoding (increment 2) – procedures encoding – AIXM 5.1.1 – minor correction
