Objective ATC 02.7 ESSIP Plan 2013 Ingrid FEIJT DSS/EIPR 13.09.2013
Comprehensive Explanation (1/2) • Implementation of Approach Path Monitoring (APM) functions. • Can be considered as an extension of MSAW (alert to a/c proximity to terrain or obstacle) in the final approach. • ECAC applicability (except Georgia, Greece and Slovak Republic). • Depending on airspace organisation, it might include a lower portion of TMAs and CTR. This objective is not applicable to the en-route airspace. • Military applicability: Military ANSPs that provide radar service to GAT traffic. ESSIP Plan 2013 / Objective ATC 02.7
Comprehensive Explanation (2/2) • APM checks the extrapolated track positions (based on Surveillance data-current track position performing a linear extrapolation using detected ground speed and rate of climb/descent), applying QHN correction and identifies the predicted or actual conflicts against the terrain during the final approach. • Terrain can be build up using digital terrain data or set of polygons that sufficiently accurate shape the vertical environment. • FP data is not used. • APM requires an appropriate presentation of predicted / actual conflicts to the tactical controllers and ATC supervisor. • APM requires careful optimalisation / tuning to minimise false alarms. ESSIP Plan 2013 / Objective ATC 02.7
What is new or has changed for ESSIP Plan edition 2013 • Removal of Georgia, Greece and Slovak Republic from the applicability list. ESSIP Plan 2013 / Objective ATC 02.7

Most important SLoA(s) • ASP01 “Implement the APM function. Put into service ground-based safety tool systems and associated procedures supporting the APM function.” • ASP to check the compliance of the implemented APM with the requirements stated in the specification, the related guidance material and the relevant training and safety requirements. ESSIP Plan 2013 / Objective ATC 02.7
Finalisation Criteria • Ensure that Ground systems have been upgraded to support the APM function. • Ensure that the technical file (TF) with evidences of compliance and the EC declaration of verification of systems (DoV) has been delivered to the competent National Supervisory Authority (NSA). • Ensure that the APM function is in operational use. • Ensure that the training plans have been updated and a training package has been developed by the ANSP for the use of APM functions. ESSIP Plan 2013 / Objective ATC 02.7
Supporting Material • The EUROCONTROL specification for APM issued in May 2009 (edition 0.9) which is still a draft. • The EUROCONTROL Guidance Material for APM issued in May 2009, Edition 1.0 This if for guidance only, and is not compulsory. ESSIP Plan 2013 / Objective ATC 02.7
ESSIP Report 2012 • The progress implementation is stagnant, compared to 2011. • Majority of the States declared to have plans for implementation by end 2013. • Achieving ATM MP (IP1) in time could be jeopardised. ESSIP Plan 2013 / Objective ATC 02.7
