THE SYSTEM WIDE INFORMATION MANAGEMENT
The Intranet
for Air Traffic Management
AIRM - ATM Info. Ref. Model
Used as a common reference for the different models (e.g. models specific to a concept, a domain or a service) that will be developed as part of SESAR
Represents civil, military and civil-military information constructs relevant to ATM
Ensure that exchanged data share the same meaning at both their origin and their destination to enable systems to combine and process received information from other resources
Encourage ATM information standards worldwide
First version exists. AIXM/WXXM part of initial load.

14. SWIM Infrastructure Architecture – Some words
Standard SOA technologies
Associated SOA products (Enterprise Service Bus (ESB), Security solutions, supervision products, Data Distribution Solutions (DDS), Registry product, etc …)
… developed software to complement & interconnect products
Relying on IP-based network (Internet or PENS …)
AFSG 15 - SWIM

15. SWIM Roadmap / Deployment Plan
Realistic yet challenging plans are key
Validated through operational trials
To be coordinated with other global initiatives
FAA / Australia / CARATS / …
Industry
Standardisation bodies (ICAO/…) …
Usage of SWIM Compliance levels …

16. International Coordination – Just some thoughts
AIRM
AIXM FAA, ICAO, CCB, …
WXXM FAA. ICAO, …
FIXM =Flight Information Exchange Model, FAA, (ICAO–FF-ICE)
FAA EA-OV7
Global semantic interoperability is key. All to participate !!
ISRM
New kid on the block
Very natural in an Enterprise Architecture (EA) / Service Orientated Architecture (SOA) approach
Any similar experiences/activities ?
Registry
Any experiences ?
OGC – Open Geospatial Consortium
Aviation Domain Working Group (EUROCONTROL-FAA co-chair)
Testbeds, …
SWIM Infrastructure
Some SESAR / NextGen / CARATS / … trials ?

17. Conclusion SWIM is now becoming a reality
New terms: AIRM, ISRM, Registry; … New for ATM: EA, SOA, IM
In terms of SWIM implementation
AIXM/WXXM are safe investments
Be SOA - Publish / Consume service (Publish/Subscribe, Request/Reply …)
Get involved
Participate to data & service models definition & review
Contribute to Governance definition - Operational/Technical/Institutional/Organisational/…
Help building a realistic SWIM Deployment Roadmap

18. Recommendation The group is invited to: Note the presented material
Discuss any possible/required international coordination
