A Practical View

CAD Republic of Serbia

DQR Specification

EC Regulation 73/2010 (ADQ IR)

EC Regulation 552/2004 (Interoperability)

Data Quality Requirements (DQR) Specification

Data Assurance Level (DAL) Specification

Article 6 (1)

Annex IV Part A

Article 6 (2)

Annex IV Part B

Advantages

• Combines requirements from different ICAO Annexes

• Brings safety to AIS into more details

• Connects with DAL Specification

• Annex C can be used in oversight process

Parties involved

• Article 2 (2) of ADQ IR:

ANSPs

Aerodrome and heliport operators

Surveying companies

Electronic terrain and obstacle data providers

Procedure designers

State Role (general)

• Represents users community

• To adopt DQR Specification as MoC for ADQ IR

• To regulate compliance with DQR HL

• To coordinate all the requirements among relevant State entities (interested parties)

• To communicate externally (ICAO, other States, EUROCONTROL)

State Role (detailed 1)

• To adopt DQR Specification

• To ensure compliance of ANSP(s) with DQR HL

• To ensure compliance of other entities with DQR HL (recommended)

• To inform EUROCONTROL on differences

• To cover insufficient requirements

• To validate DQRs within national context

State Role (detailed 2)

• Maintenance of DQR HL:

Changes supported by safety assessment

Internal and external consultations

Proposal for the modification communicated to EUROCONTROL

Periodical checks of DQR Specification

Coordination issues – internal

• All data users concerned

• Expectations from non-aviation entities (eTOD providers)

• Oversight of all the activities

• Continuous process (maintenance and revision)

• Revision of existing (?) formal arrangements

Coordination issues – external

• EAD conformance with DQR Specification

• Mechanisms for external coordination

• Level of detail with regard to ICAO non-compliance

Safety issues

• Safety in relation to aeronautical data/information

• AISP staff not safety-trained

• Safety assessment carried on by AISP staff or other (ATM, CNS and/or SAF) ANSP experts?

• Provision and use of data via EAD

• Special attention must be paid to data with multiple use

Mechanisms - internal

• Existence of supporting regulatory framework • Use of safety-related experiences from other ANSs (ATM, CNS)

• Training requirements for AISP and other staff

• Awareness campaign (WSs, Meetings)

• Compliance Checklists

• Enforcement of formal arrangements

Mechanisms - external

• Rely on available guidelines and methodologies

• Share experiences and best practices among States

• Public consultations

• Assess the need for cross-border coordination

Need for external support?

• Management of coordination between States

• Exchanging experiences (WSs)

• Training for AISP staff (safety)

• EAD-related issues

• Higher level of data quality requirements vs treatment of differences

• Key point: coordination – internal and external

• Safety in the context of AIS operations

• Need for management of coordination among States (EUROCONTROL?)

Summary

Thank you for your attention!
