Objective ATC 02.2 ESSIP Plan 2014 Ingrid FEIJT DPS/PEPR 19.09.2014
Comprehensive Explanation (1/2) • Implementation of ground-based Short Term Conflict Alert (STCA) safety net • ECAC – wide applicable • Requires implementation by all ATC units that provide surveillance (= radar) services to General Air Traffic (GAT) within En-route airspace, in the Terminal Area (TMA) and or Control Zone (CTR). • For Military Authorities:Military ATC authorities are invited to consider implementation of STCA level 2 when providing ATS surveillance services to GAT. ESSIP Plan 2014 / Objective ATC 02.2
Comprehensive Explanation (2/2) • STCA checks the extrapolated track positions based on radar data (current track position) and performs a linear extrapolation using the detected ground speed and predicts or establishes an actual conflict between a/c. • A conflict is declared if a/c tracks are separated less than the minimum separation thresholds. • Some Flight Plan (FP) data like Cleared Flight Level (CFL) can be used to suppress false alarms. • STCA requires appropriate presentation of predicted/actual conflicts to the tactical controllers and ATC supervisor.

What is new or has changed for ESSIP Plan edition 2014 • Deletion of REG01 SLoA. ESSIP Plan 2013 / Overview LSSIP 2012
Link to European ATM Master Plan • [CM-0801] – Ground Based Safety Nets (TMA, En Route) ESSIP Plan 2014 / Objective ATC 02.2
Most important SLoA(s) • ASP01 “Implement STCA systems and associated procedures in line with EUROCONTROL Specification and related guidance material in En-Route airspace, applicable TMAs and Military ATC units providing radar services.” • ASP03 “Develop safety assessment for the changes, notably ATC systems and procedures that will implement STCA – level 2 functionality and associated procedures.” ESSIP Plan 2014 / Objective ATC 02.2
Finalisation Criteria & Closed Questions • ASP01 – STCA function is implemented, documented and in operational use. • ASP03 – The Safety Assessment report including safety arguments for the changes has been delivered to the NSA and a notification of acceptance was received. • STCA implemented at ACC level? • STCA implemented in all TMAs / Towers within CTRs that provide radar services? • STCA parameters tuned to the operational environment (traffic, suppression of alarm in pre-defined areas, look-ahead time, warning time)? • Safety assessment done and accepted by NSA? • Notification of acceptance received from NSA?

Supporting Material • EUROCONTROL Specification for Short Term Conflict Alert, updated Edition 1.1, dated May 2009 • EUROCONTROL Guide “ Safety Nets Ensuring Effectiveness, dated 21 May 2011 • EC-Regulation (EU) No 1034/2011 of 17 October 2011 on safety oversight in air traffic management and air navigation services and amending Regulation (SU) No 691/2010 • EC-Regulation (EU) No 1035/2011 of 17 October 2011 laying down common requirements for the provision of air navigation services and amending Regulations (EC) No 481/2008 and (EU) No 691/2010. • Council Decision of 30 March 2009 endorsing the European ATM Master Plan of the Single European Sky ATM Research (SESAR) project (2009/320/EC) • Relevant ESARR documents • Safety assessment methods ESSIP Plan 2014 / Objective ATC 02.2
ESSIP Report 2013 • 10 States reported LATE. • Implementation delays / not achieved due to: • implementation of a new ATC System • Implementation and/or validation/verification of STCA before putting into operation delayed • Implementation of STCA in TMA area delayed • Need to implement STCA to avoid impact on safety and achievement of expected safety benefits ESSIP Plan 2014 / Objective ATC 02.2
