NETWORK MANAGER RELEASE NOTES Planned for Implementation in 2013-2014

INTRODUCTION This document describes the new or modified functions that are delivered by the Network Manager as part of the Network Manager software Releases. The objective of this document is to provide customers of the Network Manager Services with advance notice of modifications in order to anticipate any impact upon their operational procedures and/or systems. The Network Manager Releases include many changes arising from different sources and coordinated through the Operations Coordination Group and its sub-groups. It allows the implementation of new functionalities to cope with Network Manager Directorate Business plans and in particular with DMEAN objectives. The Network Manager Release Notes document is organized as a rolling document describing the functions currently under development for future releases. Other functions considered for possible development but without reaching yet a maturity status allowing their presentation are not included in this paper. The Release Notes document contains 3 main parts: • The “Evolution Programmes” part summarizing the main development Programmes. • The “Deployment” part providing precise information on the Release deployment schedule. • The “Network Manager Evolutions” part listing the delivered evolutions per Release and Functional Block. It contains also information on the deployment of the Functional Blocks that was previously stored in the Deployment Plan document. Important: The Release Deployment Plan document has been integrated into the current Release Notes document in order to centralize in a single document all information related to the Release content. The Release Deployment Plan will thus no more be edited. The current document is available at: http://www.eurocontrol.int/lists/publications/network-operations-library?type=3317&keyword= To receive automatically by eMail the new versions of the Release Notes, please register at: http://www.eurocontrol.int/network-operations/self-registration-form (Choose "Subscribe to receive e-mail notifications when the NM Release Notes are updated" in the field “purpose of the request”).

Technical Blocks

[Update v2.0]: FB560 (Real time network situation displays) was removed from Release 17.0; its features have been included in the Technical Block TB100 (Map display for the NOP) planned for Release 17.5. [Update v3.1]: FB560 (Real-time network situation displays) has been replaced by the Technical Block TB100 (NOP map technology). FB592 (Updating the CFMU URLs) has been postponed to NM18.0. [Update v3.2] NM17.5.2 will be deployed in December 2013 (c.f. §4.3). It has a limited scope: • FB594 with the continuation of FB601 (impact only internal NM). • FB591: Provide NOP access to event information for the training session (not in the operational environment).

2.1.

BROWSER COMPATIBILITY The deliverables of NM17.5 that require a browser (e.g. the NOP) are tested with the following browsers: • Internet Explorer version 9 and 10. • FireFox version 20 and 21. Other types/versions of browsers might encounter functionality and/or performance issues. For Portal to work on Internet Explorer 9 it is necessary to un-tick the two check boxes "Display intranet sites in Compatibility View" and "Display all websites in Compatibility View". The user can find these settings in the "Compatibility View Settings" dialogue, available under Tools -> Compatibility View Settings. Regarding FireFox, by default and as a safety feature, this browser forbids scripts to raise windows and, subsequently, the Portal feature of bringing windows to the front cannot work. To overwrite this safety measure one has to open the options dialogue by selecting the menu entry Tools -> Options, select the Content tab, click on the Advanced button next to "Enable JavaScript" and ensure that the check box "Raise or lower windows" is selected.

2.2.

OPERATING SYSTEM COMPATIBILITY As from NM17.5, the CHMI will be compatible with Windows 7 and Windows XP.

EVOLUTION PROGRAMMES You will find below a summarized description of each Programme that the Network Manager developments are serving. They are grouped in 4 main Evolution Areas.

3.1.

NETWORK OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT AND MONITORING

3.1.1.

Programme NOS-01: Coordinated process ASM-ATFCM The “Coordinated process ASM-ATFCM” Programme provides the frame for the further evolutions of the deliverables provided by the ASM Improvements Initiative that has introduced more dynamicity of the ASM/ATFCM processes during the last four years. The Programme will aim at: • Introducing performance driven operations based on the management of Airspace Configurations. • Providing processes that support the use of more dynamic and flexible elements. • Describing a seamless, CDM based process with an advanced real time management of Airspace Configurations as well as a continuous sharing of information among all ATM partners enabled by advanced technology. The main Lines of Improvement of the Programme are: • Airspace Configuration Definition and Operational Deployment. • A Collaborative Decision Making Process (ASM/ATFCM/ATC integration). • The Rolling Process. • ASM solutions to improve network performance. • ASM system support and data management. • ASM post ops and performance planning.

3.1.2.

Programme NOS-02: Airports interface with Network Operations Airports need to be seen as being a part of the whole ATM system in a “gate-to-gate” environment. As the tactical manager of the total network load, ATFCM has to collaborate with air traffic control, aircraft operators, and airports in a genuine partnership. The Programme aims at ensuring an efficient interface between the concerned partners through swift and effective collaborative decision-making and through the provision of the required data when and where they are needed. The Programme also covers the monitoring of airport slots (AMON) and the management of critical events leading to a better utilization of limited available capacity.

3.1.3.

Programme NOS-43: ATFCM Planning Covering the flow and capacity management several months before the operations, the strategic process will be improved in particular by ensuring the relation with longer-term planning (Airspace Design & Capacity Planning). The roles, procedures and tools used in the NMOC will be refined for managing efficiently ATFCM scenarios, including the elaboration, validation, negotiation and dissemination of ATFCM measures.

3.1.4.

Programme NOS-45: Dynamic ATFCM The responsibilities and supporting procedures between NM and the ANSP for the execution of Tactical ATFCM are currently under review to cope with the evolutions of the roles and responsibilities in ATFCM. The Programme will also improve the support to the NM stakeholders (helpdesk, AOLO, etc.) and the access to the NM services in particular for the FMPs (CIFLO, Web services, etc.) In order to close the gap between ATC and ATFCM, Short-Term ATFCM Measures (STAM) shall be developed requiring dynamic coordination between more than one ACC, the AOs and NM. The objective of STAMs is to prevent sector overloading, whilst reducing delays, by using air traffic flow management techniques, close and during real time operations.

Edition 3.5 [email protected] ©2013 The European Organisation for the Safety of Air Navigation (EUROCONTROL) p.7

EUROCONTROL Network Manager

NETWORK MANAGER RELEASE NOTES Planned for Implementation in 2013-2014

Even if some STAMs measures already exist, they are often limited to solving specific local problems and they do not consider the Network. No standardized tool or procedures exist today to manage STAMs and the role of NM within STAMs processes must be clarified. The awareness on flight progress shall be improved by getting additional sources of flight data from the Aircraft Operators and the service providers, and by sharing the consolidate information with the partners.

3.2.

ATM GATEWAY TO NETWORK OPERATIONS

3.2.1.

Programme NOS-21: Free Route Airspace Network-wide The aim of the Programme is to adapt the FPL processing systems and processes to cope with the route network evolutions impacting the NM services, such as night DCTs, Week-end DCTs or Free Route Airspace Initiatives.

3.2.2.

Programme NOS-44: Flight Plan interoperability This Programme will enhance the flight plan data exchange between AOs/CFSPs and the Network Manager during the pre-filing phase, in order to improve the accuracy and consistency between 4D flight trajectories maintained by the different stakeholders. It will re-enforce the validity and consistency of the flight trajectory with the airspace availabilities and constraints, at least until the end of the pre-flight phase. The Programme will prepare for the further transmission by NM of acquired 4D trajectory information to ATC/ANSP. It will also pave the way to the implementation of the SESAR trajectory concept.

3.3.

NETWORK INFORMATION MANAGEMENT AND SHARING

3.3.1.

Programme NOS-03: Airspace data repository The objective of ADR Programme is to provide a common and consistent source of airspace information containing both static and dynamic elements that will support the ASM/ATFCM/ATC collaborative process. The Programme allows the use of electronic information by external systems (e.g. the electronic RAD message and shortly the eAMI, informing airspace users on the changes made to the airspace). The following ADR evolutions will electronically publish live updates on airspace data. It should be noted that ADR project has been re-scoped in the frame of Centralised Services. Accordingly the EAD data download to CACD (initially planned for NM18) is no longer planned. However manual data comparison between the two systems will continue: a data comparison tool (CASTAR) will produce reports to ease the manual data alignment between the two systems.

3.3.2.

Programme NOS-24: Demand Data Repository Phase 2 The objective of the DDR is to allow airspace users to provide their intentions to meet ATM planning requirements: the Traffic Demand will gradually be refined by integrating additional flight intentions (OAG, airport slots, RPLs, FPLs, etc.), allowing predictions based on actual intentions and/or historical operations. The scope of the DDR will vary from a few years until a few hours before the operations.

3.3.3.

Programme NOS-41: Network Operations Plan The NOP aims at building a consolidated interactive view of the network situation that incorporates the existing information and user requests on traffic demand and capacity plans, identifying bottlenecks and presenting the ATFCM and ASM measures foreseen to counterbalance them. The NOP will result from the integration of interdependent data including flight intentions, status of airspace, capacity, airport data and meteorological forecasts. NOP will also be updated taking into account the actual traffic situation and real time flow and capacity management.

3.3.4.

Programme NOS-48: NM-FOS Prototype validation The NM-FOS addresses the systems and operations evolution towards interoperability/flight data sharing amongst all partners involved in the flight. The fundamental idea is that a single logical entity, the FO (Flight Object) is kept up to date by all parties sharing information about a flight. As

NETWORK MANAGER RELEASE NOTES Planned for Implementation in 2013-2014

such, all systems have the most up to date, accurate and consistent view of the flight data and plans. This single logical FO is physically distributed over a network of ‘FO Servers (FOS)’, each FOS being associated with an FDPS. Each FOS holds physical copies of the FOs of interest to its clients. The network of FOSs, not the clients, is responsible for ensuring that the different physical copies of the FO are kept consistent. In the pre-departure phase, the FO enables Communicating and Synchronising flight data and agreed trajectories (including strategic and tactical constraints, e.g. TSA closure/opening, TTA/TTO, etc.). When the flight is airborne, up to date FO improves not only the Network view available to controllers, but also allows ATC to participate to the implementation of ATFCM measures. In other words the FO is the opportunity for a better integration of ATFCM and the ATC. The FOS is an enabler not only for the Time Based Operations but also for further evolution to Trajectory Based Operations.

3.4.

SUPPORT TO PAN-EUROPEAN FUNCTIONS

3.4.1.

Programme NOS-12: Call-Sign Similarities (CSST) Air-Ground communication safety events are one of the biggest ATM safety priorities, forming 23% of all ATC safety reports. Today, 21% of all NM flights involve callsign similarity. Reliable mitigation for the risk imposed by similar callsigns (like 527F 527D or 361M 369M) can be achieved. The NM has established a Call Sign Management Cell (CSMC) to develop a centralized Service. One key element in providing the Service is the publication of agreed Call Sign Similarity Rules. These Rules are at the heart of the Call Sign Similarity Tool (CSS Tool). Development of the CSS Tool and its specifications by EUROCONTROL is closely coordinated with a Call Sign Similarity User Group (CSSUG), which includes representations from AOs, ANSPs and other aviation organizations (e.g. ICAO and IATA).

3.4.2.

Programme NOS-14: Aircraft Identification In line with PC/32 decision to organise unambiguous and continuous identification of aircraft through down linked aircraft identification for IFR GAT in ECAC, the three elements CCAMS, ORCAM and Mode S ELS have been brought together to form one Programme named AirCraft Identification Programme. The current ORCAM system is reaching its limits and SSR Code Conflicts already occur regularly today. The final goal is to have Mode S operational in the whole area but it is not being implemented fast enough to solve the problems at short term. Therefore CCAMS is implemented in some but not all states to overcome those shortages on a temporary basis, until Mode S is implemented everywhere.

3.4.3.

Programme NOS-42: Alignment to Performance framework The aim of this Programme is to align NM post-ops services (including datawarehouse and NMIR) to the NM performance IR. This includes a wide variety of activities such as the adaptation of databases, modification of interfaces graphical identity, new reports following users’ requests, etc.

RELEASE 17.0

5.2.1.

NOS-01 - Coordinated Process for ASM/ATFCM FB283: Network Impact Assessment Users impacted

Internal NMOC, Airspace Users, AMCs and FMPs.

Objective

Enhanced ASM and ATFCM co-ordination process relies upon a timely and accurate pre-tactical network impact assessment of airspace allocation. The assessment focuses upon improving route and airspace availability to best serve the needs of military and civil airspace users within the context of the anticipated network constraints. This FB has three main objectives: 1. ASM solutions for congested areas. Promote usage of CDRs/RSAs part of the AUP. 2. Flight Efficiency proposals for AO based on usage of CDRs/RSAs part of the AUP. 3. Validated/rejected consolidated AUP proposals at internal level to be proposed at external level (AMC/FMP) if needed for Objective 1 and 2. Objective 3 shall follow AUP/UUP time limitations as expressed in the ASM Manual. Enhance the NMOC tool support for D-1 network impact assessment of airspace allocation. These will include: • Improved data handling of operational AUP data in Predict and SIMEX tools. • Improved simulation of CDR and RAD constraints in Predict and SIMEX tools. • Improved Predict MAP tool identification of CDR routings and visualisation of network impacts. • Improved Predict and SIMEX simulated traffic reroutes: enhanced with more historic City pair routes and finer tuning of CDR and RAD constraints.

Description

• Improved data and trend analysis of historical AUP/UUP statistics. ASM/MIL benefits: improved civil and military information sharing. Airspace Users benefits: • Network configurations that respond to Airspace Users needs. • More opportunities to improve individual flight efficiency. NMOC/ATFCM benefits: • New AUP solutions to mitigate ATFCM hotspots. • Participation in AUP decision making process promoting efficient Network configurations to balance local and/or sub-regional airspace needs. • An improved understanding of the Airspace User needs. • Balancing the impacts of improvements in one area against other areas and the network.

NOS-44 - Flight Plan interoperability FB460: Increase planned flight trajectory consistency between AO and NM Aircraft Operators, Flight Planning Service Providers, Aerodrome Reporting Users impacted Offices ARO Objective Increase performance of flight planning and ATFCM operations. This functional block contains a number of developments that are intended to increase flight trajectory consistency through a more extensive use of flight plan information already foreseen to be included in a filed flight plan in ICAO format as well as through the addition of some new flight plan data elements. It includes the following developments: 1. The IFPS shall use estimated elapsed time (EET) information provided within the filed flight plan or associated messages for the calculation of flight trajectories. Prior to using this information, the IFPS shall validate it against its own calculated EETs allowing for the provided EET to be within a pre-defined window around its calculated EET. EET values that fail this checking shall be ignored. They will not lead to the invalidation of the message. It should be noted that, with this change, the provision and updating of EET information within flight plan messages submitted to IFPS becomes an important means to ensure the IFPS calculated trajectory of a flight is synchronised in time with the trajectory calculated by the operator of the flight for the same flight, with a direct impact on the IFPS flight plan validation process. 2. It shall be possible for flight plan originators to include within the Field 18 RMK/ element of an ICAO format flight plan transmitted to IFPS the Description following data: •

Estimated taxi time



Top-of-climb (TOC) information for every transition from a climb phase to a cruise phase



Top-of-descent (TOD) information for every transition from a cruise phase to a descent phase



Bottom-of-climb (BOC) information for every transition from a cruise phase to a climb phase



Bottom-of-descent (BOD) information for every transition from a descent phase to a cruise phase

The estimated level at the TOC/TOD/BOC/BOD should be equal to the requested cruising level on the route segment where it applies. Otherwise IFPS will ignore that TOC/TOD/BOC/BOD instance without raising an error. Distance at location shall be indicated using the format: DAL:. is the projected distance on the ground from take-off to the location expressed in nautical miles preceded by the later “D”. is the published designator of the location preceded by the letters “PT” or “AD”. The location may be either a point (PT) or the aerodrome of destination (AD). The corresponding ICAO 2 to 5 letters designator shall be indicated for a point. Only points that have a published designator may be indicated. They have as well to be part of the planned route of the flight. The ICAO four-letter indicator shall be indicated for the aerodrome of destination. Take-off weight shall be indicated using the format: TOW: is the total weight of the aircraft at take-off in kilograms. All new indicators shall be separated from other text included in RMK/ and between them by a space or end of line separator.

No error shall be raised for syntactically invalid indicators within RMK/. They will not be recognised by IFPS and therefore be ignored. All new information is optional. However, when included in the filed flight plan, the more information is provided the higher is expected to be the consistency of the calculated flight trajectories between NM and the originator of the flight plan. Therefore it is highly recommended to provide as much of it as possible. TOC/TOD/BOC/BOD information will be used by the NM systems only when the distance DAL/ at the aerodrome of destination is provided as well, as a minimum. Without it the use of TOC/TOD/BOC/BOD information alone may lead to an increase of inconsistency between trajectories. For messages transmitted via the AFTN network, due attention should be paid to the total length of the resulting flight plan message that should no exceed 1800 characters. The new flight plan data is intended to be used by the NM systems for flight trajectory calculation and, at least initially, be removed from NM output

Internal NM Application A10: NOP impacted Objective EVITA User Interface Improvements Reorganization of User Interface to facilitate the navigation inside EVITA: • Regroup of interface elements in a logical way to provides proximity consistency with the remaining window elements layout. • Text label and associated date/timestamp are isolated, being centered in middle of Forecast Details and Danger Area Details tables underneath Status Header text. Data is related to other Details, so group it together into its header text or place it into its own header. This would restore proximity consistency with the remaining window elements layout. • The Affected Area Details table and Prism Details table show isolated text data, being centered in the middle of each table. Its vertical alignment would be improved if the text was made left justified with the rest of the text in the Forecast window. Description

• Reduce vertical pane height when there is little data to display by making pane’s vertical size dynamic. User then doesn’t have to scroll up or down to display the full information. • In order to enhance the navigation, two hyperlinks have been added to the bottom right of the EVITA portlet: ƒ The first hyperlink named “D” points to Forecast detached view. ƒ The second hyperlink named “F” points to the Forecast detached view. • An alternative to the “Plot” feature has been created, named "Auto-fit". This new button (formerly known as Re-bound) opens the map window with the map zoomed to display what has been selected in the selector. • A button is added at the right hand side of each crisis row, which opens a menu that contains links to the Forecasts detached view or Danger areas detached view is requested to navigate faster.

Description

Impact

U12. Internal NM A3. CIAM (MILO-simul profile) A5. Flow management systems (Predict, ETFMS) The objective of the change is to improve NMOC ASM-ATFCM tools in order to anticipate Network Impact Assessment of the FUA data. These improvements will facilitate the analysis of AUP and UUP data during pre tactical and tactical operation. The execution of those anticipated analysis can help to ensure consistency at a local and Network level. In particular, the change implemented in release 17.5 will make possible to import UUP draft data from CIAM into PREDICT/Simul and ETFMS/Simul systems. The application of the FUA concept ensures that, through the daily allocation of flexible airspace structures, any necessary segregation of airspace is based on real usage within a specific time period and airspace volume. Airspace Use Plan (AUP) and Updated Airspace Use Plans (UUPs) are produced by AMCs to allow concurrent civil-military operations. These plans need to be incorporated into pre-tactical and tactical operations with minimum disruption to civil traffic as well as allowing effective military operations. NMOC has to contribute to ensure that improvements in one KPA do not lead to the performance deterioration in other KPA Network wise. NMOC has to contribute to ensure that solutions developed locally and /or proposed by Network Manager do not create a problem in other locations across NM area. NMOC has to contribute to ensure that the ASM-ATFCM process can bring the basis for improvements on flight efficiency and capacity and additionally to negotiate/coordinate revised airspace opening or closure times.

A5. Flow management systems (Predict, ETFMS) Accept REA only after EOBT-15 Currently the REA message is accepted if it is received after EOBT-30. This is for historic reasons because in the past, flights were allowed to depart up-to 30min before the flight plan EOBT. Justification: ICAO only allows departures up to EOBT-15min (see ICAO Doc 7030) unless the AOs Cancel (CNL) and re-file the flight plan. ETFMS' acceptance criteria of the REA are now aligned with ICAO requirements. I1. Impact on procedures. Up to now REA messages that are sent before EOBT-30min are rejected. After the change, REA messages are rejected up to EOBT-15min. The change has been agreed with ODSG and is not expected to have a high impact on operations because AOs should already comply with this ICAO rule since many years.

Flow management systems (Predict, ETFMS) NM Ops Center conducted different ops trials with Maastricht UAC during 2012. The purpose of the ops trial was to validate the concept of one of the procedures in the Enhanced Network Ops programme, namely Network Cherry picking. In essence, Network Cherry Pick is the use of a limited number of CTOTs to replace the traditional regulation. Its purpose is to solve short peaks in enObjective route sectors by delaying minimal numbers of flights and allowing the majority to operate without a CTOT. It is complementary to STAM but carried out by NMOC at network, not local, level. Some system improvements have been implemented to support the trials that will take place after the 17.5 migration date.

B2B Include RTFM in the EFD before SIT1 Currently, in the EFD messages, no information is sent about the impact of ATFM regulations on the flight before the Slot Issue Time (SIT1), i.e. 120 minutes before EOBT. When the flight is regulated earlier than SIT1, related EFDs sent before SIT1 mention that the flight is "Slot Allocated" but contain only the FTFM. In order to have a better view on the traffic predictions for the planning tools relying on the EFD messages, information about the impact of ATFM regulations on the flight will be available already before SIT1 (EOBT - 2 Hrs), according to the following: EFD sent more than 5 Hrs before EOBT: • Flight Model: FTFM • Flight Status: "Slot Allocated“ if already regulated EFD sent less than 5 Hrs before EOBT: • Flight Model: RTFM model if regulated, FTFM otherwise. • Flight Status for regulated flights: • Before SIT1: "Slot Allocated" • After SIT1: "Slot Issued" To avoid system overloads, an EFD will not be sent following a delay change of less than or equal 5 minutes.

CACD impacted Objective Reduce the incorrect processing of FAM messages in ETFMS The “FAM areas” are defined in ENV as AUAG Airspaces linked to Units of type EntryNode. Those AUAGs should correspond to a contiguous volume of airspace monitored by the EntryNode. Since AUAGs are composed manually based on a set of AUAs, and in addition AUA definitions can evolve over time, sometimes holes are left inside the AUAG volume. These holes can result in incorrect processing of FAM messages in ETFMS Description Inside the reference airspace volume, all gaps and holes detected by a geometrical calculation that are not included in the list of known intentional gaps and holes, are real erroneous gaps and holes. because This solution can provide a strong validation that produces blocking errors: inside the reference volume, every hole that is not an intentional one is by definition a real erroneous hole Impact I0.
