Safety is based on knowledge. Today information is seen more and more as data. Spoken information is being replaced by automatic data communication. The world wide integrity of aeronautical information data is essential for international planning and navigation in the fields of Automatic Dependence Surveillance, Area Navigation, and Required Navigation Performance. Navigation is changing from ground based equipment to satellite based systems, which is in fact data based navigation. Therefore standardization must be complied with.

From within the Aeronautical Data And Message Switching System product family, Avitech offers its customers a high-tech and proven Aeronautical Information System.

General Aviation Pilot Briefing

This Sm@ll.AIS system addresses self briefing activities at airfields as well as home briefing activities by general aviation. It runs on any computer with a World Wide Web browser and is linked to the NOTAM and Flight Plan System by local or wide area networks. Using Hyper Text Mark-up Language technology, it is possible to implement a national or international flight planning system without regard to the hardware and software running on the client computer, and that means a substantial reduction in logistics costs.


Key features

• Flight Plan Input
• NOTAM retrieval with PIB Generation
• Combined NOTAM and MET bulletin
• World Area Forecast System weather charts and satellite images
• Access to electronic AIP
