Appendix 1 AERONAUTICAL DATA CATALOGUE

Regulation (EU) 2020/469

Introduction

(a) The aeronautical data catalogue is a reference to the aeronautical data subjects, properties and subproperties organised in:

(1)  aerodrome data;

(2) airspace data;

(3) ATS and other routes data;

(4) instrument flight procedure data;

(5) radio navigation aids/systems data;

(6) obstacle data;

(7) geographical position data.

(b) The tables of the aeronautical data catalogue are composed of the following columns:

(1) subject for which data can be collected;

(2) property: an identifiable characteristic of a subject which may be further defined into sub-properties;

(3) same as 2;

(4) types: the data is classified into different types;

(5) description: a description of the data item;

(6) notes: containing additional information or conditions for the provision of the data;

(7) accuracy: requirements for aeronautical data are based on a 95 % confidence level;

(8) integrity classification;

(9) origination type: data is identified as surveyed, calculated or declared;

(10) publication resolution;

(11) chart resolution.

Note for items 2 and 3 under point (b): the classification of a catalogue element as subject, property or sub-property does not impose a certain data model.

Note for item 7 under point (b): for those fixes and points that serve a dual purpose, e.g. holding point and missed approach point, the higher accuracy applies. Accuracy requirements for obstacle and terrain data are based on a 90 % confidence level.

Note for item 10 under point (b): the publication resolutions for geographical position data (latitude and longitude) are applicable to coordinates formatted in degrees, minutes, seconds. When a different format is used (such as degrees with decimals for digital data sets) or when the location is significantly further to the north/south, the publication resolution needs to be commensurate with the accuracy requirements.

Navigation specification name

 

 

Text

 

A set of aircraft and flight crew require­ments needed to support PBN operations within a defined airspace; there are two kinds of navigation specifications:

(a)  RNP specifications: navigation speci­fications based on area navigation that includes the requirement for per­formance monitoring and alerting, designated by the prefix RNP, e.g. RNP 4, RNP APCH.

(b)  RNAV specifications: navigation spe­cifications based on area navigation that does not include the requirement for performance monitoring and alerting, designated by the prefix RNAV, e.g. RNAV 5, RNAV 1.

Operating minima

 

 

 

Text

 

 

Aerodrome operating minima: the us­ ability limits of an aerodrome for:

(a)  take-off, expressed in terms of RVR and/or visibility and, if necessary, cloud conditions;

(b)  landing in precision approach and landing operations, expressed in terms of visibility and/or RVR and DA/H, as appropriate to the category of the operation;

(c)  landing in approach and landing op­erations with vertical guidance, ex­ pressed in terms of visibility and/or RVR and DA/H; and

(d)  landing in non-precision approach and landing operations, expressed in terms of visibility and/or RVR, minimum descent altitude/height (MDA/H) and, if necessary, cloud conditions
