8. Overall Implementation Issues observed • Data Originators • Identification and formal arrangements • Interface • Common data set and direct electronic connection • Non regulated data originators • Safety Assessment • Specific for aeronautical data systems • Tools and Software • Large number of tools • Software safety assurance • Long procurement processes • Implementation Dates • Too challenging • Conformity Assessment • When needed? • Who does what?

9. Conformity Assessment Conduct verification of the systems NOTIFIED BODY SYSTEM OR CONSTITUENT MANUFACTURER ANSP Conduct verification of the systems Assess conformity or suitability for use NSA EC DECLARATION OF SUITABILITY FOR USE EC DECLARATION OF VERIFICATION OF SYSTEMS ADQ Implementation Support Cell

10. ADQ Regulators Working Group (ARWG) • Established in February 2011 • “An opportunity to create synergies among the national bodies (Regulators, NSAs, CAAs) involved in the oversight of the implementation of the Regulation (EU) 73/2010 (ADQ) and it is believed to be a crucial contribution to achieve a common understanding of the provisions of the regulation.” • 2/3 meetings per year • 21 States already represented • Tour de Table ADQ Implementation Support Cell

11. Legal issues identifiedCommon understanding achieved • VFR Aerodromes • data related with VFR Aerodromes, even if published in the AIP, is outside the scope of the ADQ IR. • Data Protection • allow the implementation of data integrity protection through the use of alternative and equivalent standards other than the CRC32Q • Scope of the Regulation • quantifiable data quality requirements for accuracy, resolution and integrity, as required by Article 6(1), apply only to a sub-set of data items. However, the scope of the remaining provisions shall include all of the aeronautical data and aeronautical information that is referenced on the second sub-paragraph of Article 2(1) • Possible modifications • collected a list of possible modifications to the Regulation, mainly references and definitions • Terrain Exchange Formats • recognised that the existing formats do not fully meet the requirements of the ISO 19100 series as required by ADQ • endorsed the activity of the TOD WG in identifying the user preferred terrain formats ADQ Implementation Support Cell

12. Legal issues identifiedUnder discussion • NOTAMs • “Regulation (EU) No 73/2010 apply to the NOTAM, except when to do so will inhibit the distribution of aeronautical information necessary to ensure the safety of flight.” • Provision of eTOD • provided by non-regulated parties (e.g. geo institutes) • ADQ inhibiting the provision of eTOD • Implementation Timescales ADQ Implementation Support Cell
