Supporting papers for ANSPs

To obtain operational approval from their national supervisory authorities ANSPs will have to demonstrate that their controllers are properly trained in the use of ADS-B. The following guidelines have been produced to assist in this task.

• Guidelines for Operational Approval
• ATC Manual for ADS-B NRA
• ATC Manual for ADS-B RAD
• Use of ADS-B for Enhanced Application of ATSA-VSA
• ATC Manual for ADS-B-APT V-1.0
• ATSA-AIRB ATC Info Leaflet V-1.0
• ATSA-SURF ATC Info Leaflet V-1.0

WAM

For further information on WAM you may consult the WAM section of the Surveillance Library.
