We are pleased to announce the availability of the following draft EUROCAE document prepared by EUROCAE WG-81 for Open Consultation:

Draft ED-147RevA “ATM Validation Platforms Interoperability Specification”

This document supersedes ED-147 “ATM Validation Platforms Interoperability Specification” (January 2013).

The document has been updated to extend the ED-147 scope and to improve certain areas mainly using SESAR feedback.

As compared with the previous version, the main changes are:

  • Introduction of GroundVehicle object as specialization of the MobileEntity object

  • Introduction of the FIXM model as support to the definition of the Environment Initial Flight Plan to feed both FlightObject and ATGFlightPlan objects.
  • Introduction of EPP data structure in FMS object
  • Refinement of ADS-B message description
  • Addition of SelectedAltitude and SelectedHeading in ADS-B message
  • Renaming of the Datalink messages and complete redesign of the header attributes of the message generalization
  • Rationalization of some data types between Aircraft object attributes and ATGFlightPlan attributes
  • Creation of IdPublishedPointType to replace IdPublishedPointStruct each time a published point is required in a structure for an attribute that is not defined as a union.
  • Removal of Operating attribute of TCASDataStruct
  • Redefinition of the Ref_Id_Receiving/Transferring_Oe string attribute of CoordinationAndTranferStruct into ATSOperationalEntityStruct
  • Modification of constraints for AltitudeMType, AltitudeFtType and SpeedMsType
  • Refinement of Time Synchronisation management
  • Revision of the output data requirements
  • Addition of further comments in QoS as regards Atomicity and Ordering.

The document as well as the forms are posted on the EUROCAE website.
