The goal of SWIM is to foster the interoperability between European ATM Stakeholders in a networked environment. The means to achieve this goal are information services and service orientation practice whereby information services are identified, designed, described, and implemented (provider and consumer side).
The EUROCONTROL Specification for SWIM Technical Infrastructure Yellow Profile contains requirements for system interfaces (e.g. protocols) and for IT infrastructure capabilities required to enable a reliable, secure and efficient exchange of information in the context of SWIM. This contributes to technical interoperability.
Please note that the Supporting Material to SESAR Deployment Programme implementation Update 2025 refers to the previous edition (i.e. 1.1) of this Specification as the edition to conform to as part of AF5 SWIM Deployment (as detailed in the EU's Common Project 1 regulation and the SESAR Deployment Programme). Therefore, also Edition 1.1 is provided here for reference.
