AIS data providers can access the EAD system to perform updates of their static data, directly, through a graphical user interface (B2C – EADPro) or via XML data uploads (B2B – MyEAD).
After data validation, the information is made available to the different sub-systems to produce the AIP and charts, to validate the NOTAM information at creation or during processing and to perform the pre-validation of a flight plan when using the ARO Briefing facility.
SDO provides also a graphical validation tool for complex static data changes, to visualise and verify information before publication.
Addressed user needs:
- for NOFs (NOTAM Offices), creating and maintaining NOTAM information;
- for ANSPs, publishing AIP information;
- for ANSPs, providing aeronautical data;
- as AROs (ATS Reporting Offices), an integrated flight planning solution.
