IATA’s Role in the Data Ecosystem Ø Data collection: breaking silos and helping build the business case. Ø Data aggregation: facilitating data sharing programs as a neutral, trusted body. Ø Data use: business translators through a holistic approach to addressing the industry problems. IATA / WMO AMDAR Collaboration

Flight Operations Efficiency IATA Global Turbulence Database Development

Current problem with turbulence data: Too little shared Airline C Airline B Airline A PIREPs Automated Turbulenc e Report Automated Turbulence Report ATC Airline OCC Provider X Current limitation: Too often the case with aircraft flying through turbulence • All 3 aircraft will hit the same turbulence because the data is too often not shared by ATC, nor between airlines or different solution providers • All available data needs to be shared to mitigate turbulence encounters globally • Airlines have requested IATA to be the global turbulence data consolidator

IATA’s role is to facilitate ground-to-ground turbulence data sharing amongst airlines IATA’s Role Automated Turbulence Report Ground Server (either airline, or SITA/ARINC/ or airline’s third party Ground-to-ground data transfer to IATA Global Turbulence Database (simple real-time data deidentification , security and aggregation) Airline requests data from IATA database IATA sends data back to airline ground server Airline Operation Control Center (ground server) for operational use*** IATA’s role is to receive existing airline data from ground servers, consolidate data into one database (managed by a specialized, IATA contracted database vendor), and upon request provide the data back to airlines via ground-to-ground transfer ***Airlines are free to decide how to use the data operationally with their existing dispatch or airborne alerting tools

Highly Collaborative Development IATA Turbulence Advisory Group: IATA Turbulence Data Exchange Platform 16 27 June, 2018

Platform Architecture and Functionalities Developed to Date ä 99. 9% Availability ä Highly Secure ä Highly Scalable ä Anonymized Data ä 24/7 Monitoring ä Full logging & audit IATA Turbulence Data Exchange Platform 17 ä 30 seconds for data throughput 27 June, 2018

IATA WMO Collaboration Progress to date § Working arrangement between WMO and IATA signed July 2017 § Platform to establish a partnership framework aimed at improving weather forecast for aviation § Con. Ops development – work in progress Goals § Focus on the expansion of the AMDAR program worldwide § Expand the AMDAR program to new airlines from datasparse areas § Protect airlines’ ownership of this data

IATA WMO Collaboration IATA’s Envisaged Role § § § Promote AMDAR to it’s members Educate airlines on program benefits Close the historical NMHS / Airline “gap” Facilitate discussion amongst MET and aviation stakeholders Identify program efficiencies Airline benefits § Improved forecast accuracy, safety and greater operational efficiencies § Better control over which parties can access airline MET data § Cost-neutral participation in the AMDAR program

How IATA can help the airlines get onboard • Engage the right stakeholders within the airline industry • Educate the airlines about the importance of AMDAR and the benefits they can realize if they participate • Help the airlines build the business case for their Senior Management • Assist airlines in evaluating the required technical development to implement AMDAR reporting capability • Possibly commercialize existing AMDAR data to subsidize program participating for new airlines IATA / WMO AMDAR Collaboration

Let’s grow the AMDAR program together to enhance industry safety and efficiency by producing more accurate weather forecasts IATA / WMO AMDAR Collaboration
