Promote interoperable data exchange
Leveraging global geospatial interoperability standards into ATM
Exploit time and location information to deliver the right information at the right time and place.
Interoperable Data Exchange
Global interoperable data exchange is based on the:
Standardisation of data content and meaning through data modelling
Standardisation of interfaces to provide well defined means to access data and enable seamless interoperation
Interoperability Standards
The following global interoperability standards will be adopted:
Global AIM Data Models
In order to facilitate the interchange of aeronautical information, several exchange models have been developed. Currently, these are:
Aeronautical Information Exchange Model (AIXM)
Aerodrome Mapping Exchange Model (AMXM)
Weather Exchange Model (WXXM)
Ground-to-Air Data Link Standards
For users on the airborne side, such as airline and general aviation pilots, data link is the communication mean to receive information from and exchange information with the ground based systems. There are today a number of aviation data links that could be part of a D-AIM architecture for transmitting information to airborne users, for example VDL Mode 2, VDL Mode 4 or UAT. All being data links recognised and standardised by ICAO.
In the D-AIM Sweden trials 2007-2009 the VHF data link VDL Mode 4 will be used (ICAO Doc 9816, EUROCAE ED-108A).
Geomatics Standards
The International Organization for Standardization Technical Committee 211 (TC211) is responsible for developing the ISO 19100 geographic series of standards. These provide a common framework for developing geospatial applications. The ISO TC211 standards also include temporal and metadata aspects. In addition, the Geography Markup Language (GML) specification provides a way to encode geo-temporal information.
The Open Geospatial Consortium leads the development of implementation specifications for the geospatial industry including location based services such as Web Feature Services and Web Map Services.

World Wide Web Consortium
The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) develops interoperable technologies (specifications, guidelines, software, and tools) to lead the Web to its full potential. Examples include XML and XML Schemas.

The Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards
The Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS) drives the development, convergence and adoption of open standards for the global information society. Its work includes SOA and Web Services.
