Aeronautical Data Quality - Implementation in Europe 3

Overall notes – Summary key points (1)

Good attendance at this workshop gathering key regulated parties Excellent and open presentations highlighting current stakeholder

approaches, progress and implementation difficulties Clear demonstration of effort applied and commitment to implement ADQ

confirming that the underlying concept of ADQ is fully valid Numerous challenges were highlighted ranging from initial lack of

management commitment, legacy issues, some initial originator “reluctance”, oversight issues through to huge impact stemming from technical changes or new systems to be put in place

Key issue in Member States (MS)/Organisations appeared to be the ADQ Timelines. European Commission will need to better understand the current status

achieved in MS:Question is to how can this be achieved? Could a dedicated ADQ questionnaire be helpful to ascertain a consolidated view.

Once having achieved this, discussions to address notified implementation difficulties may be arranged in coordination with SSC.

Aeronautical Data Quality - Implementation in Europe 4

Overall notes – Summary key points (2)

Time at WS was limited to discuss all detailed questions that were raised Agency will extract more detailed questions/aspects from the

presentations and answer them separately A number of specific support requirements for continued generic

stakeholder support were collected and those will be analysed, prioritised and actioned

The method for individual stakeholder support was outlined and will have to be further addressed: States/Organisations are requested to raise specific needs back to the

Agency, ideally through the ADQ-ISC Detailed aspects raised - example AIXM:

There is a need for additional guidance on e.g. AIXM Business Rules and Metadata in the ADQ context

Workshop will be organised to address those issues
