Your application needs to support text NOTAMs, so you want to decode and visualize text NOTAMs on the map.
Why do it?
A NOTAM or Notice to Air Missions represents a temporary update to the aeronautical environment, relevant for aviation stakeholders, such as pilots, air traffic controllers, airlines, and so on. Common examples include:
-
Temporary airspace restrictions, for instance because of an important political event or sport manifestation, a helicopter training, or a UAV operation
-
Temporary obstacles, such as a crane being deployed somewhere
-
Navigation aid updates, about a broken radar, for instance
-
Airport updates, such as a taxiway that is closed for maintenance
Historically, those NOTAMs are represented as structured text messages. One example format is the one from Belgocontrol:
B0640/16 From:18 JUN 16 11:00 Till:26 JUN 16 20:00 Schedule:JUN 18 19 1100-SS, 23 26 1000-SS Text:MEEUWEN-GRUITRODE PSN 510707N0053225E RIFLE SHOOTING CONTEST RADIUS 0.5NM Lower limit:GND Upper limit:1300FT AGL
As the example shows, a NOTAM typically contains a time period, a description of the update, a location, and some information about the horizontal and vertical extent of the update. Although not all information is always present, we can choose a best-effort approach to decode and visualize such text NOTAMs on the map.
More about text NOTAMs and Digital NOTAMs
Text NOTAMs were originally designed to be readable by humans. This can make lots of NOTAMs fairly cumbersome. In addition, it is not that easy for a human being to read coordinates. Automatically interpreting and visualizing relevant NOTAMS on a map is much easier. Because of the partial free text, however, it is never guaranteed that all NOTAMs are successfully processed and visualized. Therefore, the aviation world is moving towards a new NOTAM structure, called Digital NOTAM. It is entirely based on AIXM 5.1 (XML), and readily supported by Luciad portfolio software.
How to do it?
This use case is illustrated by means of a LuciadLightspeed sample that shows how to decode and visualize a few text NOTAMs on the map. This sample consists of the following classes:
-
NotamDataTypes.java: definition of the structure of a NOTAM domain object, consisting of a set of properties and geometry -
Notam.java: representation of a NOTAM domain object, adhering to the structure defined inNotamDataTypes -
NotamDecoder.java: decoder to parse text NOTAMs into objects of typeNotam -
NotamSample.java: Lightspeed view sample showing the use of the classes above to decode and visualize a few publicly available text NOTAMs on the map.
The code can be found at the end of this article.
The following screenshot shows an overview of the decoded sample NOTAMs on the map, on top of a Bing Maps background layer. The NOTAMs are displayed by means of a cylinder and a label indicating its identifier.
The following screenshot shows a selected NOTAM in 3D. The label for a selected NOTAM show its title. Users can access all available NOTAM properties on a properties panel.
