AIM: Special Use Airspace (SUA) Automated Data Exchange

1. AIM: Special Use Airspace (SUA) Automated Data Exchange The Airspace Information Management (AIM) Special Use Airspace (SUA) Automated Data Exchange will improve capacity and efficiency of the NAS by increasing civilian access to current SUA status. The primary benefit to NAS users is improved efficiency: specifically, to increase the capacity and operational efficiency of airspace operations by improving airspace management. The SWIM AIM SUA capability will help ensure SUA geometry, schedules and status are digitally managed in the NAS, and changes in SUA status are captured and distributed as they are made. • The following will be developed in SWIM Segment #1: • A standard data entry user interface to accommodate creating and storing SUA and ATCAA (Air Traffic Control Assigned Areas) definitions in a centralized, configuration managed aeronautical information database management system. • Services to dynamically publish AIXM SUA definitions for use by the public and within NAS operational systems such as the SUA Airspace Management System (SAMS) • Standard service that enables ERAM, TFMS, FSS, TMA, and NTML to subscribe to this SUA service and receive SUA information dynamically via the AIXM standard • A new interface that enables SAMS to receive SUA data updates dynamically from ERAM via an improved ATC GUI Product Fact Sheet – SUA Auto Data Exchange
