Known as iNM – the integrated Network Management programme will put in place a range of innovative Digital Products enabling EUROCONTROL, in its capacity as the Network Manager designated by the European Commission, to maximise the efficiency, safety and sustainability of the European aviation network through a new generation of cutting-edge, resilient and scalable operational systems.
The iNM programme envisages, by 2030, the incremental renewal of all the NM’s main operational systems, resulting in a new digital architecture that will harness the power of innovation and enable NM to deliver ever more integrated business services and products to its stakeholders.
The latest Release Notes document outlines the following key updates:
- Introduction of the new CRISIS / EVITA iNM Digital Product, providing CP1-compliant Quantitative Volcanic Ash (QVA) information, fully integrated with VAAC London and Toulouse through SWIM-enabled services.
- Harmonisation and onboarding of the legacy CRISIS / EVITA tools onto the iNM Digital Platform with a modernised user experience and unified interface.
- 15th December 21:00UTC Technical OPS Deployment for Wave2.2 impacting only Digital Products: iNM CRISIS \ EVITA OPS deployment, short downtime for NMUI Flight AO, RAD, DNP-E, CAL existing Digital Products, no other down time.
- Read-only OPS access for all Airspace Users from 16 December 2025, enabling familiarisation with QVA visualisations and the new iNM CRISIS environment, while the legacy CRISIS/EVITA applications remain available for operational use until further notice.
- Important: Until further notice, the legacy CRISIS / EVITA applications in NOP Portal and NMP will remain available and be used operationally in case of any volcanic ash related crisis event. No operational procedure changes in Wave 2.2
- iNM CRISIS / EVITA Digital Product Transition, Training and Operational Switchover milestones will be announced in later release notes or by NM Crisis Management based on the maturity of guideline developments on how to interpret QVA information. These activities are under the umbrella of the ICAO working arrangements, together with the SDM, EASA, national regulators and operational stakeholders, supported by the Network manager.
