Q & A AIM Forum

Greetings from CAA Bangladesh, Sir would you mind to let me know if there is any validation requirements by ICAO for helicopter VFR flight procedure. Thank you for your time and great support to community through https://www.mais-learning.com/ Posted on Behalf of CAA Bangladesh

Question post in webinar from Somalia

A: For recaps of the video sessions you can share the link here: https://www.gotostage.com/channel/61299a04cb354b92b4b8bb08ecd20061 And your staff will be able to see the free-to-view content. If you want to set up a library of ICAO and other aviation documents? This is something that each country

If OLS (obstacle limitation surface) is not maintained properly and surface is penetrated by obstacles around 125% of its permissible height, how to assess the risk?

This question was asked during a webinar in October 2020: What other trainings would you recommend for someone with background in IT basic AIS 021 basic Digital Cartography and certificate in eAIP without AIP interface/content management...... We have a huge task ahead, to set a funtional ch

Good evening, Recently I watched your sessions about how to create IAC in QGIS and in the session 3 part 2, you was mentioned about chart layout template, but sadly I can not find Q/A record where you promise to comment about how to create it. So maybe there is some possibility, that you can provid

From Webinar in October from Egypt: 1- I heard that eurocontrol going to implement digital NOTAM next year !! Is it possible ? 2- do you have solutions regarding eAIP data sets? 3- What about systems have old SNOWTAM format, do you have a solution in this regard?

We recently received this question: How can make contour from dem for scale for example 1:500.000 Have you one example ?

I have been asked this question many times and again more recently it came up on Linked-In. Is it something you have done? (Taken the leap from a safe Government or ANSP job to going out into the world on your own?). What advice would you give yourself and others wanting to make the first step?

A: Complex labels can be done in many software through the use of rule-based labelling. These rules would allow to put the labels as needed. What are some of the complex labels that you require for ATS route segments? (Antonio)

Noted, answer to be investigated.

Yes for sure but it would be after the sessions (maybe as a followup), can you provide some further details of the "normal" projection and scale used in the ENR chart (For example) covering the entire territory. Normally it would also be good to know the origin and possibly std parallels if appropri

Any XML format is potentially useful for data ingestion for aeronautical purposes. The key here is the questions: 1. Is the vertical datum supplied useful for extracting height information or elevation information that I need? (if not can I convert it safely to what I need). 2. Are there features in

Example : 45N and 46N? Do ICAO allow STATE PCS?

This is s a multipart answer due to the complexity of output possibilities: 1. Measuring within QGIS, distances should be Geodesic, (this will automatically be taking account of the changes in latitude longitude etc along the length of the line for you). In older systems and for long distances On En

According to the requirements of Annex 15 para 1.2.1, we need to implement WSG84. There might be a lack of my understanding regarding the proper actions on this issue.  CAA Bangladesh has published all aeronautical geographical coordinates (indicating latitude and longitude) in terms of the WGS

In my experience of creating these surfaces it within the company, it not so much a question of drawing but rather a data modelling and calculation problem. It can be accomplished in a database connected to something like QGIS. The database would normally need to be spatially enabled such as Postgre

Question from Qatar during webinar

I would like to know if your organization delivers training for Aero. Info Mngt professionals. Kindly provide me with the various trainings if any. Thank you

Please what tools and equipment do you recommend for setting up a cartographic unit within AIS from Data capture through to the production of the various charts. Thank you.

Noted to be checked

Answer to be investigated

The charts symbols are displayed at particular sizes on particular map types in the chart manual and Annex 4. However for electronic charts and visualisation in GIS sizing is very tied to the view level or magnification. It is also the case that the type of service that you serve out will allow you

I think that the obvious answer here is yes, as that is the stated aim of ICAO to ensure that the representation of Data and Information in chart form is as consistent across the world as possible. Is this achievable currently: Currently Not by States! the production methods employed across the worl

In theory yes, the new training manuals for AIM from ICAO could give you a list of what you need to revise, however, they are really a framework for creating a training framework to ensure that staff knows what they should know. There will always be the following pathway: 1. OJT - Onboarding new rec
