EUROCAE Open Consultation ED-77A

We are pleased to announce the availability of the following draft EUROCAE document prepared by EUROCAE WG-44 “Aeronautical Databases” for Open Consultation:

Draft ED-77A “User Requirements for Navigation Data”

The scope of the standardization activity is data supporting new airborne and ground navigation applications (but it does not aim to standardize the applications themselves). The object is to make ED-77 up-to-date with reference to the developments in the navigation domain over the past 15 years in general, and in particular with the Performance Based Navigation principles. The update will consider the requirements of the new ATM application – with inputs from SESAR and NextGen – (e.g. 4D trajectory, Advanced PBN, SWIM, etc.) as well as changes suggested by industry and derived from authorities experience feedback. The update will aim at ensuring consistency with ICAO, ARINC and other related EUROCAE standards in terms of standards for data processing, in particular data quality (ED-76A).
The document as well as the forms are posted on the EUROCAE workspace.

You are invited to review the proposed draft and complete the comment form. Early replies are encouraged.

All comments must be submitted by 9/18/2018 12:00:00 AM
