smartAIM Data Flow


smartDM and smartWFM

Introducing a flexible WFM tool that enables process owners (i.e ANSPs) to design work flows according to their process for the data originators

Regulatory Compliance

– ICAO – Annex 15 , ADQ - Aeronautical Data Quality - Implementation Rules, EC Regulation 73/2010, OJEU – 27th January 2010

Increased Efficiency in AIM

– Traceability

– Timeliness

– Control of the process and documentation

Vision – Aeronautical Data Change

management/2005-chain-overview.pdf


smartWFM

An integrated solution for the data originators to interface with smartDM products according to their unique processes

The solution includes:

– A web service interface to the smartDM for data management

– AIM customized state-of-the-art WFM forms

– Full integration of AIM customized WFM forms with:

– smartAIM DM (AIXM 4.5 or AIXM 5.1 database modules)

– AIXM features (binding mechanism)

– AIXM metadata

– AIXM temporality

– AIXM slot management (change set)

– smartAIM common services (i.e authorization, authentication)

Full costumer support to design the work flows based on their requirements


smartWFM

FREQUENTIS is using a COTS WFM tool customized and integrated into AIM environment

Internationalization by:– different languages: German, English, French, Italian, Persian

– language and time-zone per user

– full Unicode support

– different calendars and holidays

An open, platform- and database-independent system

Complex processes, organizations structures, and forms can be modeled

Different clients make the system applicable for each workflow application

Application integration: consequent use of standards, various interfaces and a rich API makes this task easy.

Proved in many projects and application areas

smartINMOIntegrated NOTAM, METEO Operations

and Flight Plans


Dynamic Data

Short-term information, which may change frequently

NOTAM: Notice to Airmen– Information to pilots describing changes to static data (e.g. bird swarms, runway

closures, runway icing, cranes,…)

– have a location (may affect an area) and a validity

Flight Plans: – Describe the route along which a flight will be flown

– Include information about the timing

– Include information about the aircraft capabilities and equipment

Meteo Information:– METAR, TAF, SIGMET: textual information describing the weather situation


smartINMO – Highlights

Provides an integrated dynamic data management solution: NOTAM, Flight Plan, METEO

Provides Pre-Flight Information Bulletins (PIB) in conjunction with Flight Plans and MET information

Offers NOTAM Summaries and other NOTAM Retrieval Functions (PIBs and Profile Management)

Provides ICAO 4444 compliant flight plan management (FPL2012)

Integrated Web Briefing Applications

SNOWIZ, NOTAMWIZ

Digital NOTAM


smartINMO – NOTAM and METEO Management

Convenient solution for the exchange of NOTAMs in every country– linkage of the NOTAM to the 2nd language version

as well as the Static Data affected

Full integration with smartDM database

Automatic processing of checklists and RQN

Applies ICAO and OPADD rules for validation

Automated forms for NOTAM, SNOWTAM, ASHTAM, SIGMET, AIRMET, METAR, TAF, GAMET, SPECI

Digital NOTAM


Digital NOTAM

Digital NOTAM is a sub-concept of AIXM 5. It was the main reason for the FAA to support the standard.

Digital NOTAM follows a different timeline than the “rest” of AIXM.

SWIM will be the transport mechanism.– ICAO does not have a standard for it yet. SWIM is only

worked no by FAA / Eurocontrol

– Before the transport issue is finally defined and standardised on a world-wide basis, it is therefore unlikely that a global replacement of traditional NOTAM transmitted via AFTN can be achieved in the foreseeable future.
