Automated Air Information Production System. Phase I. Volume I. Executive Summary.

Abstract

This report details developmental efforts in providing the initial phase of a fully automated Air Information Production System (AAIPS) for the Defense Mapping Agency Aerospace Center. The system is used to produce DOD Flight Information Publications (FLIPS); Navigation/Planning and Special Purpose Charts; Special Products; and the Automated Air Facility Information File. The requirements, functional design and operational considerations of the AAIPS Charting, Air Facilities, and Publishing Subsystems are presented. The principal purpose of the three subsystems is the reduction of the labor (manual) required for the revision and publication of information critical to flight operations and logistical planning. Improvement of response time between receipt of changes to air navigation/air facilities data and the dissemination of new data to all users, is also provided.
